We all want more services, software (AI is software) is just another service.

We are a country of less than 30 million people. How many datacenters to service "AI" do we actually require?

Do we require a Meta datacenter, an Amazon datacenter, a Anthropic datacenter, and etc etc, so we can burn more resources in the name of 'competition' between all these behemoths?
