Former President Donald Trump is speaking out against a recent decision by New York State to ban data centers powered by artificial intelligence, labeling the move "disastrous" for the state's economy. Trump, who has been a vocal supporter of technology development, claims that the ban will stifle innovation and drive businesses away from the state. The New York State Public Service Commission's decision aims to reduce energy consumption and emissions from data centers, but Trump argues that it will ultimately harm the state's economic competitiveness. As the debate over the role of AI in the economy continues, Trump's comments add a high-profile voice to the discussion.
