Let big AI solve the problems created by big AI
 

Please, just say "NO!" to emergency generator use during planned power outage events. We need not heap benefits on the world's very wealthiest companies at the expense of the well-being of Virginia's citizens and environment. Let's not allow the benefits of data centers to become a poisoned chalice from which we will all regret drinking.
