@pluralistic@pluralistic summing up my thoughts on where the current #DigitalSovereignty conversation is leading us towards:
I’m sorry. I know that when we talk about “digital sovereignty,” we’re obliged to talk about how we can build more data-centres that we can fill up with money-losing chips from American silicon monopolists in the hopes of destroying as many jobs as possible while blowing through our clean energy goals and enshittifying as much of our potable water as possible.
I don’t have any advice for how to do that. I’m sorry!
I tuned into the “Summit on European Digital Sovereignty” stream hoping to listen about #DigitalSovereignty and all I got was a morning on how we for some reason to have more #AI, better #AI, (less regulation so we can have) faster #AI, and #AI everywhere.
Somehow, I’m not convinced. Perhaps I will in the afternoon, when they hopefully actually talk about digital sovereignty…
