Just spoke to a farm owner in rural Kansas
He manages a 1,500 acre wheat farm that’s been in his family for 12 generations
But a data center is being built on the edge of his property
His water supply is already being “polluted” and it’s ruining his harvest
This is an amazing opportunity, I told him
“Now you don’t have to work in the boiling hot sun all day! Finally, you can work inside in the comfort of your own home. I hear Meta is hiring remote AI content checkers for up to $2,100 a month. More than enough money to survive in a depressed shit hope area like this!”
He began to cry- no doubt from the joy of realizing he finally broke the generational curse of manual labor
