I’m all right with it really because it doesn’t really matter. Radioactive material isn’t really dangerous at least in any sensible context and it doesn’t really put out a lot of carbon so if Microsoft want to restart nuclear power station then I don’t really have any objection.
As to whether they need to be doing this is another question, but the fact that they’re doing it at all doesn’t really bother me.
There’s always the outside possibility that they decide that the nuclear power station isn’t enough and end up building a Dyson Sphere or something.

It puts out literally zero carbon. Once you build a nuclear plant it’s 100% green after the construction
Well it does put out some carbon because the extraction and refining processes are not carbon zero, but there are considerably less than coal or gas.
I think it’s the responsible thing to do, sure, but I feel like there’s a problem of scalability with LLMs. That was more of my point.
