When GM realized they needed more mechanical engineers than existed, they built a whole university. These days, capital just whines. If you can spend $100 BILLION on data centers, you have the budget to stand up a proper school.
This is an excellent point. Georgia Tech, a top 10 computer science university, has an annual budget of $2.7 billion (2024) for the entire university to educate an enrollment of 53,000 students. Really puts it into perspective; this is 1% of Google's annual expenses.
That is a good point. Odd that our reactions, including my own given that I think the AI data center boom is pretty nuts, to that much being spent on data centers is "not surprising" while a company standing up a school sounds like something from science fiction.
