About a year ago, this site near South Bend, Indiana was just cornfields. Today, it’s 1 of our U.S. data centers powering Project Rainier – one of the world’s largest AI compute clusters, built in collaboration with @AnthropicAI. It is 70% larger than any AI computing platform

@ajassy @AnthropicAI @grok I wonder how it compares to @xai colossus.

@ajassy @AnthropicAI "Just" cornfields. I like how you think it's a great thing to build an AI data center on productive farmland.

@ajassy @AnthropicAI And when the next gen of AI chip/quantum chip comes out that doesn't require all that space, or when the AI market crashes (not a single AI company is making a profit, they are just burning through investor dollars), there will be thousands of these massive, monolithic concrete

@ajassy @AnthropicAI Came here to shit on you for killing a game and community that's been a pillar in gaming, staying to like every comment shitting on you for the stupid ass content in this tweet. Fuck you, fuck your profits, fuck your shareholders, and fuck your bottom line. Fuck you.

@ajassy @AnthropicAI Well, when all that is left are the machines, I guess we won’t need corn anyway.

@ajassy @AnthropicAI "Just cornfields"...... Is your data center going to provide food?

@ajassy @AnthropicAI Absolutely REMARKABLE!!! I started using AWS in 2012 and loved it ever since. And this one turning a cornfield into one of the world’s largest AI compute clusters in just a year really shows the scale and urgency of today’s AI infrastructure race. The collaboration with

@ajassy @AnthropicAI Can that AI super computer make corn? Can it supply groceries to stores? What a waste.

@ajassy @AnthropicAI Congratulations on converting 30k human jobs into a new data center! Good luck on ejecting the next 30k for more GPUs! No more humans!

@ajassy @AnthropicAI Not sure if replacing cornfields with plastic, metal, and energy consuming data centers is something we should be proud of. I’d be curious to know what y’all are doing to offset the disruption to the ecosystem. Don’t get me wrong, I’m pro AI and pro tech. But I’m also pro

@ajassy @AnthropicAI So you destroy land, raise electricity rates and sucking water from the locals, hire foreigners and think this is a win?

@ajassy @AnthropicAI Too bad people in the area can't put your compute power on the kitchen table to feed their kids. I'm for innovation but destroying farm land for data centers makes no sense to me..

@ajassy @AnthropicAI How much water are you using and how much power are you consuming by it?

@ajassy @AnthropicAI Where are all the environmental protesters?

@ajassy @AnthropicAI [Narrator] - And with this declaration, the "Climate Crises" abrubtly ended.

@ajassy @AnthropicAI I would rather have the food.

@ajassy @AnthropicAI @grok how does training compare to Nvidia gb200s and gb300s and h100s and h200s

@ajassy @AnthropicAI Also fire every employee that built it

@ajassy @AnthropicAI How many foreigners did you import to build and run this? Where did you relocate the corn fields?

@ajassy @AnthropicAI How much is the utility bill?

@ajassy @AnthropicAI "Just Cornfields " LOL

@ajassy @AnthropicAI Farmland to AI slop?

@ajassy @AnthropicAI Ya,,,that's why my electric bill is thru the roof!! Which elected gov did you bribe??

@ajassy @AnthropicAI I like corn better than em dashes, Andrew~!

@ajassy @AnthropicAI This is why our electric bills keep going up.

@ajassy @AnthropicAI Turning cornfields into AI dominance shows real vision. Custom chips crushing scale barriers will unleash smarter models faster. Game changer.

@ajassy @AnthropicAI When are you going to be put in Focus & layed off for any lack of innovation at $AMZN, whatsoever!

@ajassy @AnthropicAI “just cornfields” Was your PR assistant in the 30K laid off?

@ajassy @AnthropicAI Cornfield was a better look and provided something of substance. Amazon is all about consumerism of crappy stuff. Do better @ajassy

@ajassy @AnthropicAI Andy, do NOT screw up in the earnings call in 2 day, for sake of love Jesus Christ! just keep repeating AI!

@ajassy @AnthropicAI Is Amazon paying to upgrade the energy infrastructure or are the taxpayers on the hook for the huge increase in prices?

@ajassy @AnthropicAI where the hell are we supposed to get our ethanol and high fructose corn syrup from now Andy

@ajassy @AnthropicAI If it’s so fucking productive & such a great ROI, why TF is my electrify bill from a state mandated monopoly up as their profits hit record highs & you parasitically leech off the working middle class of South Bend? If it’s so worth it, YOU PAY FOR IT!

@ajassy @AnthropicAI Scouring of the Shire noticing intensifies.

@ajassy @AnthropicAI Who needs corn when you can have endless disinformation, deepfakes, and anime tits.
