The Washington Post attacks Bernie Sanders for proposing a moratorium on AI data centers, siding with tech giants like Amazon. Sanders fights back, warning of the threat AI poses to working families.
“Jeff Bezos is spending $200 billion on AI and robotics. Jeff Bezos is replacing hundreds of thousands of his workers at Amazon with robots. Jeff Bezos owns the Washington Post.”
Bezos, one of the richest people on the planet, created an AI startup last year with $6.2 billion in funding, some of it from his personal fortune, and Amazon—where Bezos is still the primary shareholder—has announced plans to invest $200 billion in AI and robotics.
“What a surprise,” said Sanders sardonically. “The Washington Post doesn’t want a moratorium on AI data centers.”
