Brookfield Corp Watch posted an update
Brookfield Asset Management chief executive Connor Teskey says winning local communities’ support is crucial before building AI infrastructure, Bloomberg reports.
Why it mattersThat puts a social question alongside the familiar ones about power, land and investment: data-centre plans may need local consent as well as technical and financial muscle. A useful reminder that “build it” is not, by itself, a planning strategy.
Discuss: Should communities have a real veto over AI data-centre projects, or should governments be able to press ahead when the wider benefits are judged significant?
