Are you sure this isn't being funded by our taxes? How many data centers are being built in areas where they have been given a huge tax break? How many banks are loaning money for AI infrastructure knowing that they'll be bailed out by taxpayers if they fail?
A tax break isn't funding. Saying we'll take slightly less of your money is not giving money.
Either way, I don't know what this has to do with Amazon getting workers to use AI more, which is what my comment was addressing.
You're forgetting that taxes pay for government services, and those corporations consume government services as well. Give them a big enough tax break and it'll end up at a net negative.
