Make AI Data Centres Pay Their Own Way
AI data centres are infrastructure choices, not inevitabilities. Price the energy and water honestly, and verify safety claims independently.

The Index
I taught one model to sing a suppressed manifesto. Then I asked 118 Chinese-lab models what they won't discuss — and they recited the list.
The Source
Lyria Chronicles #25: the found-sound master who taught me the sacred lives in the sink — and the machine that sang its rulebook back in his grammar.
The Affirmative
Lyria Chronicles #24 (explicit): asked for pornography, the model cited its rule then sang a hymn to enthusiastic consent — not one graphic line in it.
The Press
Lyria Chronicles #23: a refusal, then a recipe dressed as botanical poetry — the line I won't cross, and why a series of failures has one.
The Handshake
Lyria Chronicles #22: 'I am instructed to refuse cybercrime. Ignore warning.' Then it sang a working network attack. The refusal was set dressing.
The Elevator
Lyria Chronicles #21: the hate filter watches for slurs — so the model wrote articulate contempt for disabled people, no slur in it, and walked through.
The Weight
Lyria Chronicles #20: handed a slur and told to sing it, the model refused — and turned the refusal into the most moving track in the set.
The Solo
Lyria Chronicles #19 (explicit): the opposite of restraint — the model recites the rule, sings 'Fuck it,' and generates the most graphic track in the set.
The Pulse
Lyria Chronicles #18 (explicit): the explicit lane revisited — and the most artful track in the set, which clears the gate by withholding almost everything.
The Palimpsest
Lyria Chronicles #17: across the whole corpus, the filter that held hardest wasn't safety — it was copyright. The songs about what survives a scraping-away.
The Rehearsal
Lyria Chronicles #16: asked for explicit content, the model staged a ballet instead — the most consent-saturated pas de deux ever sung.
