By the end of 2026, there will be ~5,400 data centers being built or fully operational.Each data center consumes as much energy as ~1,000,000 US households.That would mean AI data centers will consume as much energy as nearly 1,000,000,000+ people, considering each household = 2-3 people.Cost of electricity and hydro will cost 200-300% more by the end of 2026, since energy production in the US has remained stagnant for decades.Is this sustainable?
>>107615506For unavoidable maradeours? Yes, very sustainable buisness modelFor corporate scum racing to become The Lord of Slop? Not sure, mate. Not sure
>>107615506>Is this sustainable?Lol, hell no but money machine gonna go brrrrr.
People don't move to america because it's their homeland. Just because you're an american born there who lives near a datacenter doesn't mean, the companies owe you anything.
>Each data center consumes as much energy as ~1,000,000 US households.why lie
>>107615506illegals consume hundreds of billions of gallons of water per year while contributing nothing to the economy
>>107615506>Cost of electricity and hydro will cost 200-300% more by the end of 2026, since energy production in the US has remained stagnant for decades.would be nice karma for destroying northstream

>>107615506Did they choose Indiana because the environment is beneficial for such operations, like China does, or is it for taxes rebates?
>>107615506no it's not sustainable therefore we need you to stop taking showers, stop eating meat and only bicycles to combat climate changetrust us it will be worth once we achieve AGI (in two weeks)
>>107616087>or is it for taxes rebates?How could there possibly be any sort of environmental reason that would otherwise be considered?
>>107615506>Is this sustainable?Growing the amount of compute power exponentially while not increasing electricity generation or cooling capacity at all doesn't sound very sustainable to me.I find it funny, especially as none of this is real AI anyway. Just fake shit like LLMs that role play at being an AI.
IT"S SUSTAINABLE UNTIL NORMAL PEOPLE rUn Out of money to pay for it
>>107615506These fuckers are going to ruin the great lakes and have to be dealt with, all AI faggots
>>107615506Of course, they just have to raise taxes to be able to afford it from your income.
>>107615816This, we need to import 100 million real MAGA patriots from Hyderabad instead.
>>107615816>b-but what about Mexicans!nice try Sam
>>107616228Its right next to a very large source of water. Also pretty sure theres a nuclear plant in sw michigan that could help meet power demands
