Damn, seems like someone got some mail. It's hard to confront the ways UM has sold us a story of science as morally neutral, even though you're researching nuclear weapons. Many of the scientists of the first Manhattan project regretted it for the rest of their lives. It's not too late @skyburner103

University of Michigan and Los Alamos National Lab are working together to build a $1.25M computing facility. Prof Joy Rohde argues that it poses grave intellectual, institutional, and ethical challenges, based on the history of similar partnerships since World War II. #umich #scipolicy #techpolicy

There is a crazy huge tailgate/concert at the stadium tmw so the previous location is gonna be impossible to park at 😭 😭 literally parking spots close to the park are being sold for $170/day 🫠🤮 so we are moving it, but it's only gonna work if you all tell ANYONE you think is coming to the rally.

SCOOP: A pro-AI dark money group backed by a powerful super PAC funded by execs tied to Palantir and OpenAI, has been secretly paying influencers to push pro-AI, anti-China propaganda on TikTok and IG.

Reportback: we successfully scared off the execs! No ground breaking ceremony was had! Instead folks gathered in the park and enjoyed the wildlife, 50 burritos, and each others company. No AI nukes in our town!!

Friends! No joke, UM and Los Alamos are having a ceremonial ground breaking for the Data Center sometime this Monday near South Hydro Park. Lots of folks are going to come hang out throughout the day to make sure they know NOT ONE TREE, NOT ONE BLADE OF GRASS. Food, yard games, bring noise makers!

Wonder why AI heads want a data center here to help with nuclear weapon research 🙄. Especially in light of the trump admin's latest actions we have to remain clear eyed about the connections btwn imperialism, immigration, and information technology. NO MORE WAR, NO MORE DEPORTATIONS, NO MORE DATA!

Thank you @aljazeera.com for the wonderful graphics showing the excess of AI spending visually. Also interesting is that the US is spending 471 billion, roughly 4 times as much as China, in second place at 119 billion.

Graphic showing 1 billion dollars takes up 2 by 2 by 5 meters in hundred dollar bills

Graphic showing different investments.
ISS: 150 billion
Apollo: 250 billion
Original interstate construction: 620 billion
Total AI investment: 1.6 trillion

The US is spending more than the rest of the world combined on AI.

Ai spending is forecasted at 2.5 trillion in 2026.

Abolish ICE, defund the police, UM out of Ypsi, US out of everywhere!!!

The people willing to destroy our town with an AI War research center are the same people willing to extrajudicially shoot protestors or lay siege to one of our neighbors for 30+ hours as he suffers a mental health crisis. If we want to beat this data center, we must love one another enough to be against state, imperialist ,and genocidal violence of all kinds, and find any way to resist it we can!!
