盖洛普民调显示：美国人更反对在社区附近建设AI数据中心而非核电站
71%的美國人反對在家附近建設AI數據中心，超過了對核電站的反對程度，這表明美國AI基礎設施擴張可能遭遇強烈的地方阻力。
71% of americans oppose constructing ai data centers in their neighborhoods, a figure surpassing the 53% who object to nuclear power plants, according to a new gallup survey. opponents cite high water and energy usage, pollution, and increased utility bills, while supporters highlight job creation and tax revenue. the poll identifies a stark political divide, with 56% of democrats strongly opposed compared to 39% of republicans, and strongest resistance in the midwest and south. this growing local backlash poses a threat to the massive infrastructure buildout needed to support generative ai, potentially turning into a campaign issue. the sentiment is already influencing legislation, such as senator bernie sanders' artificial intelligence data center moratorium act introduced in march 2026.
