I know many people smarter than me, plenty of them who have spent careers building data centers, and not one of them think this is plausible.
You should consider whether people smarter than the average investor are pulling a fast one.
Maybe we are talking about different things here?
I don't doubt spacex can fail at this.
I also don't doubt we are fairly close to making this plausible.

Famously, plenty of people who have spent careers building rockets would swear that reusable rockets would absolutely never work.
>I also don't doubt we are fairly close to making this plausible.
Maybe you should doubt that. There's literally no reason to think this is plausible besides some hype merchants' say-so.

Have you considered that people smarter than you are scamming you?
Yep, definitely being scammed by not dismissing things outside my area of expertise out of hand.
I wish I had your confidence about everything!
I am yet to see any actual numbers showing how the economics of this would work or compare to the cost of building traditional data centers.
Please come back to reality.

Instead you put your confidence in Elon, who has zero expertise in this area?
