We will be back next week with a new episode, but while we take a week off, we have unlocked a favourite from our Patreon feed. Like the underappreciated modern classic Eddington, it is all about data centres. Enjoy! -

In this bonus episode for Patreon subscribers, Tom and Emerald speak to Professor Toby Walsh, author of “The Shortest History of AI,” to learn all about data centres. As life becomes more and more online and AI enshittifies every aspect of existence, data centres are multiplying across the world and drinking up water and power. Is Eddington a documentary?
