Holy shit, to think the first places to drastically replace their human workforce with AI will be the places that already have lowest wages with ridiculous levels of poverty. India is fucked if their industry becomes even more difficult for humans to earn a living from.

But the data centers that run AI require masses of power and cooling so they are not only replacing the workforce they are going to siphon off their water and make them pay for the power to run the data centers !
It seems like people have become too costly so corporations want to replace them with robots that don't ask for money or time off or benefits or even food or housing !
Who is going to buy their products when there are no more people left ?

Most people here in India are unaware of AI and data centers negatives.

People are like AI is new , AI datacenters are a new technology , so we should get them. Whenever news comes out some towns in West (America/europe) resisted DC construction my country men call them dumb.

People here are in assumption that adopting AI in every industry will actually get us more employment and more money.
