Thanks for reminding me. I need to go and take a nice long bath.
IMO evaporative cooling should be illegal at a certain scale. Water is valuable.
They should be forced to use salt water for their AI data center cooling, and use the evaporated water to get fresh water.
The other day I saw a post with a picture of a baby elephant. The source was provided, a published imagine in a magazine long predating what we’re calling AI. Without a doubt a real photo.
Still, the comments were chock full of people absolutely certain it was AI generated. People even added in red arrows and circles pointing out their “proof”. The possibility of AI-generated content has created some kind of collective psychosis.
The really hilarious thing is evaporative cooling (that takes so much water) is simple penny pinching over a closed loop system. That’s all.
…Yet Bezos and Musk are talking orbital datacenters?
Pick a lane?
All that evaporating water is gonna trickle down eventually. Just like the money.
What’s going to be in the water when it gets down there?
how’s an orbital datacenter going to cool itself?
Because it’s cold in space, of course /s
Sorry 😭
