AI on the ballot? Voters in US midterms revolt against data centres

Two weeks out from the Midterm elections, there’s bipartisan pushback against data centers that suck the water and power out of communities.

In 2026, bots and large language models write papers and churn out campaign ads. We'll ask about calls for regulation despite fierce resistance from tech billionaires and whether the latest wobbles from the stock market signal that the race to corner the market and scale up at warp speed may be running out of road.
