>How about all the industries like HFT or AdTech? You mentioned yourself research, there is a dire need for computing power (and I don't think it's that much of a niche). Don't you think all these machine learning oriented start-up would like more CPU? How about big data platform?
I don't think society would have any serious issues, in fact we might just be better off, without more efficient HFT and big data.
In fact, I'd ask for more regulated and slower-frequency trading, and smarter (rather than "big") data. And especially when it comes to surveillance and consumer behavior analysis (for ads, etc.), the less data those scumbags get, the better.
