Charley Crockett opposes AI data center construction in rural Texas
Country music artist Charley Crockett has clarified his position regarding the construction of AI data centers in rural Texas, stating he opposes their development in these communities.
Crockett's clarification follows a controversy sparked by a report in the San Antonio Current, which interpreted a previous social media post by the singer as support for data centers. Crockett responded by declaring his support for fellow Texas musicians Willie Nelson and Tanya Tucker, both of whom have also campaigned against the expansion of data centers in the state.
In his response, Crockett also addressed the issue of technology addiction, noting the irony of criticizing data centers while maintaining a dependency on smartphones.
