@theslowai: In January, Scotland was promised a flagship AI datacentre running entirely on its own green power. Eight billion pounds, complete by 2030. Its own plan needs up to 100 square kilometres of renewables, and it has planning permission for about two, so it quietly plugs into Britain’s grid instead, ahead of everyone else’s connection. This week Scottish councillors voted to freeze new datacentres. Worth asking who checked the green promise before the announcement.
