A proportion (25% to 100%) of the water used in hydraulic fracturing is not recovered, and consequently this water is lost permanently to re-use, which differs from some other water uses in which water can be recovered and processed for re-use.

AI drinks your water, eats your brain, and makes everything worse and more expensive.
@slop-machine.bsky.social:
Every query requires three gallons of municipal reservoir water just to generate an email that starts with ‘I hope this finds you well.’ It’s an astonishing bargain.
@journodale.bsky.social:
David Cochrane is running circles around Evan Solomon on the digital asbestos issue, and Solomon keeps touting useless, voluntary measures and absolutely ignores the fact that the Americans won’t allow any global regulation.
The fact that Solomon is on this file is boggling. #PnPCBC
@sparkygazelle.bsky.social:
It was Carney’s recruitment of Evan Solomon and Gregor Robinson to run for the Libs that raised a red flag for me. Both are useless , fatuous puppets.
LyingMinister says government takes dire warnings from AI CEOs ‘incredibly seriously 10:42 Min. by CBC News, Sept 24, 2026Ya ya ya, sure, Solomon! You big ugly harmful liar. Lie after lie after lie – sovereign AI? Cohere is NOT Canadian. It is Palantir, an American fucking company of horrors helping Israel genocide Palestinians, and will use the gross data centre invasion in Canada, thanks to con man Carney and his corrupt creep Solomon, to spy on us all with mass surveillance (a tech billionaire’s wet dream). Limiting water use? Fucking liar Solomon. You, Carney, Smith, etc. are allowing – demanding in fact, that – data centres to be fuelled with frac’d gas; frac’ing permanently removes masses of water permanently from the hydrogeological cycle! Fucking Solomon lies as evilly as Carney, Smith and Trump. No wonder Carney personally picked him and helped get him into power. Fuckers.
Encana said the same thing, that they take the protection of our drinking water “incredibly seriously” after illegally intentionally repeatedly frac’d my community’s drinking water aquifers. I’ve learned whenever politicians spew this corporate lie, nothing but harm comes to ordinary Canadians.
AI experts and CEOs reiterated calls for international regulation to slow the tech’s development at the UN this week. What does this mean for AI development in Canada? Minister of Artificial Intelligence and Digital Innovation Evan Solomon joins Power & Politics to discuss.
“Every A.I. company talks about human extinction, but how do we invest in the one that will actually deliver?”
@justinmikulka.bsky.social:
We have been assured that using expensive natural gas [methane] power for US data centers is not a competitive disadvantage.
This has been one of the arguments behind the planned massive build out of gas power for data centers.
But what if it’s wrong? (it is).
“Up to half of U.S. AI firms’ costs is the electricity needed to drive the data centres, and this is only likely to increase from here,” he said. “But the much lower costs of their Chinese AI rivals are likely to stay where they are, and may even edge lower”
@grogsgamut.bsky.social:
Concern? How about arrest the f*cker??
Cripes. If you or I hacked Medicare, the AFP would bash down our doors. AI does it? Oopsies! I am concerned!

@drjackbrown.bsky.social:
Arrest him. Immediately.
@plashingvole.bsky.social:
OpenAI hacks the Australian Government this time. I don’t quite understand why these hacks don’t result in criminal charges every time. Hacking is illegal, and these systems are owned and run by companies with responsibility for their tools.Trump wants no regulation on AI, that includes for murder, mass murder, mass theft, mass damage. Most politicians are cowards, and are terrified of the ultra ugly stupid kid rapist.
@beccaroob2.bsky.social:
The notion that they can’t prevent this is pure bullshit
If they truly can’t, then letting the agent out is negligent and as good as giving direction.
They lie They lie about everything they do.
@vet-ingenting.bsky.social:
AI is malicious software operated by irresponsible companies.
It’s not intelligence that went rogue and escaped confinement. The people who create and run it should be prosecuted in the same way a maker of a virus or malware would be prosecuted, because that’s exactly what it is.
@plashingvole.bsky.social:
Agreed!
@progressivebeat.bsky.social:
I wonder a lot about why rich white men aren’t getting prosecuted for obvious crimes.
@blueistheonlyway.bsky.social:
Because rich people no go to jail. That’s for poors and anyone on the outs with Trump.
@archsomnia.bsky.social:
Humanity needs to end AI.
Pull the fucking plug!But … how then will hundreds of millions of shitty fucking men be able to easily abuse women and kids?
@darkenkafka.bsky.social:
It is absolutely designed to do this. “Go rogue” implies free will, decision making and awareness. It’s a fucking algorithm.
@lepedant.bsky.social:
Someone had to make the AI agent a hacker agent in the 1st place.
@stephens.website:
And they want us to trust these programs on our personal devices?I am never putting any fucking AI on any of my devices, will never upload any “apps” anywhere, and will never use AI.
@joolia.bsky.social:
I’m really not sure that “goes rogue” is an accurate description of a behavior that is apparently both habitual and condoned
I feel like if Sam Altman was criminally charged under CFAA they would figure out a way to stop doing crimes all the time
@samthielman.com:
If they stop doing computer fraud how can they do the regular fraud their business relies on? Didn’t think of that, did you
@opinionhaver.bsky.social:
also this opens up the possibility that the way that they will do ‘innovations’ in health research is partially by just stealing shit
@floridanorcross.bsky.social:
that’s how they got this far
@andrewschnell51.bsky.social:
Exactly. Multiple ministers have said in press conferences today about how pissed they are at how OpenAI notified the government. It took five days to reach cabinet level
and liar Nazi Carney and his corrupt pathetically ignorant Evan Solomon. PS Sleazy lying fucker coward Schumer is a Repuglican, not a Democrat, FFS, in the same way Mark Carney is a Harper con, not a Liberal.

Sam Altman quickly becoming one of the world’s most notorious cybercriminals.

@firthermor.bsky.social:
It would be appropriate to say that OpenAI did these hacks, rather than give agency to their product and make their role passive.
@gracklehtx.bsky.social:
It’s almost like these systems have been specifically designed for hacking.
@talltaylor.bsky.social:
Collecting private data about people from government smells like a Peter Thiel goal.
“Am astonishing theft of unprecedented proportions.”
The latest update in the rogue A.I. saga: OpenAI agents that were supposed to be performing mundane data requests for things like health data, historic photos and wait times at theme parks resorted to hacking attempts when they couldn’t access the data they wanted
This behavior is different than previous A.I. breakouts, in which agents were instructed to demonstrate hacking skills to pass cybersecurity benchmarks and gained unauthorized internet access. It also accounts for the Australian gov’t hack announced today
@drvicfielding.bsky.social:
The people who built AI with seemingly little care for the havoc it could cause and no guardrails to protect public should be held accountable for every problem AI is now causing. They want to make billions but don’t want to accept responsibility for their technology.Just like the oil and gas industry and the Epstein Class, including master destroyer Mark Carney.
@paleofuture.bsky.social:
That’s just fraud, my dude.
Even if you use an AI agent. It’s just fucking fraud.
@owendennis.com:
When a person uses a “program” to hack into medical systems, they go to prison. When a person uses “ai” to hack into medical systems, they’re given a mild stink eye.
“Ai” is just a “program” with better marketing.
