Good, we don’t need AI corporations destroying the environment just to keep the bubble lasting a little bit longer
Good. Put the 130 B towards food, rent, and healthcare for the people.
ThAt’S cOmMuNiSm!
Gasp! What have I done!? /s
Good riddance if its a AI datacenter
You can’t tell whether it’s an Ai datacenter or one that merely holds and protects your health data and DMV records. Or a mix.
The criteria needs to not be the PURPOSE of a DC, since that’s impossible to gauge before or after the build, but the build of the DC.
- no water cooling
- ya pay for your power
- no fucking jet engines outside
- noise bylaws strictly enforced
You know, like everyone else.
One of my contracts is with a gov adjacent org. I know they’ve got your personal info - the stuff like your DMV recs - kept very safely in a datacenter somewhere. It’s safe, reliable, and has great data connections.
Tear these down and … what? Back to paper in an office somewhere with no backup?
How about number of GPUs as a metric. The more, the worse the datacenter?
Lots of places still pushing forward against people’s wishes though. Construction is real easy to interrupt though and these over leveraged companies can’t afford the delays. It’d be real easy to derail this shit if people start acting.
So, what’s that as a percentage? Of successful actually running ‘data centers’
Seems a lot like they actually want to be stopped because it’s not profitable, it’s the idea that’s profitable.
Good!
That’s a good start.
Good, we shouldn’t be building any new data centers at all.
