On every conceivable front – students, homeowners, labor, businesses – Americans are rising up to reject AI and the Technocrats behind it. Klaus Schwab's statement 10 years ago about "you will be happy" was just as stupid as "visualize world peace"; you don't speak your reality into existence. Behind that facade, their lies and propaganda are catching up with them. Their bunkers and billions won't help them in the end. ? Patrick Wood Editor.

There's no doubt that the broader public has turned against AI in a serious way.

In the United States, a YouGov pol found that three-quarters of Americans think AI should be more heavily regulated, an anxiety shared across the political aisle, the Economist observed. The US populace is likewise increasingly fearful of the economic impacts of AI, especially as powerful tech companies pour money into state and federal elections.

As that anger boils over, people are increasingly channeling their frustration toward data centers — one of the few tangible points of leverage ordinary people have against an otherwise untouchable, trillion-dollar tech industry.

The world's tech billionaires are taking notice, carving out distant island compounds and private jet fleets in case of revolution. Mark Cuban, who made his vast fortune during the dot-com boom and has publicly beefed with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, is now warning his fellow moguls that the public's discontent runs far deeper than AI.
