I'm aware of that, but at some point it's also like when the Ming Dynasty destroyed their naval fleet for political reasons. They still needed a normal navy for even local maritime trade. They killed it all and caused (in a reductive sense) a 200 year depression.
We still need data centers for literally a million things that aren't LLMs. And personally, I'm 100% on board to shoot that LLM shit into orbit. Get your solar from the source and fuck off.
