Battlefields vs. Bandwidth: Manassas Grapples with AI Data Center Invasion
Manassas National Battlefield Park in Virginia, the site of key American Civil War battles, is now under threat from the expansion of AI-driven data centers. The Prince William Digital Gateway, set to become the largest data center complex in the world, has sparked backlash from environmentalists, historians, and local residents who fear it will erase historic landscapes and strain resources. Developers argue their plans include respectful design features, but critics cite environmental costs and procedural shortcuts. As AI demands escalate, the conflict between technological growth and historical preservation intensifies on the grounds where the nation once fought for unity. (BBC)
