Why don’t these things differentiate between 1. new permanent jobs that didn’t exist before and 2. temporary jobs associated with building the thing.
My guess is most of them are temporary.
If £100bn investment only creates a few thousand jobs then there’s something seriously wrong with the world.
Snake oil.
Grim. Fingers crossed the AI bubble bursts before too much environmental destruction cause by this half baked scheme.
Seems like nonsense to me.
The investment assumes the power station will be built and all its capacity will go to data centres.
And when the bubble bursts?
And I don’t believe you!!!
Yeah I do not want this at all, propping any part of the Welsh economy with the AI bubble is not good fiscal planning, nor is it morally or environmentally conscious
Fuck that. May as well set up a bitcoin mine, or a factory that feeds wildlife into an NFT machine.
