Recenzii
Combining historical research with investigative reporting and lucid analysis, Paris Marx cuts through the industry hype to expose the immeasurable costs of Big Tech's AI arms race. A tremendous contribution to a debate that is of existential importance to us all
An excellent, timely compendium of the history and layered social, environmental, and health impacts of data centres for anyone who seeks to understand the jaw-dropping numbers and real human-scale stories behind the headlines
A catalogue of the drawbacks of data centre development, Hyperscale is a book Big Tech does not want you to read
A polemical on-the-ground investigation into the rapid spread of data centres and their impact on the environment and the communities where Big Tech is building them ... focusing on the people and places affected by their ambitious plans
If you want to understand where the future is heading, you have to read Paris Marx's Hyperscale. Urgent and illuminating, this is a perfect primer for the key infrastructure of the twenty-first century
Marx turns one of the most pressing political, economic and ecological issues of our time into a truly human story ... data centres might just be the issue that can unite us all
Realistic and inspiring. While the book documents the harms of the broligarchy's attempt to cover the entire planet with datacenters and create a world in which we can't live without them, Marx also highlights movements building 'human scale' technology, helping us liberate our imagination from the singular path we've been sold by the AI industry
An urgent, deeply reported examination of how the relentless expansion of data centers is reshaping communities, economies, and the environment. The portrait that emerges is both eye-opening and alarming, with Marx's central conclusion striking in its clarity. Timely and persuasive, this revelatory account is difficult to ignore
Praise for Road to Nowhere:Marx's invaluable book explains how and why big tech's utopian transit projects crashed and burned and what the alternative might look like
Sharply rendered, compelling, and illuminating
Marx [delivers] an astute critique of Silicon Valley and compelling vision of a world where technology is instead used to deliver social good
Marx unmasks Silicon Valley's place in the broader crisis of capital, and the social, economic and ecological damage it does
