basically imagine the Manhattan project, but instead of blowing up the desert they're building the biggest datacenter you've ever seen.

Isn't this the beginning of the plot of "I Have No Mouth, And I Must Scream"? The exceptionally disturbing dystopian horror?

the possible futures after the thing is built are uncountable, but hoping the thing won't get built at this point is naive.

in general I agree people should be reading a lot more sci-fi nowadays than they used to.

I read the popular ones, but itch for more. Which sci fi most applies today?
