Why THE FUCK does AI use so much clean water daily?

What's with this weird 20th century style environmentalism revival that treats water and wood as scarce resources?
>>
>>107875623
Look at a deforestation map. Wood might as well be non-renewable

Water is a little more dubious, but could theoretically become scarce if we do a little trolling...
>>
>>107875623
Climate change is affecting the global distribution of water (and to some extent wood as well, but the wood stuff is primarily driven by land use), so people are encountering more news about local and regional water crises.
The problem is people either lack the nuance to understand these issues are limited to certain geographic contexts, or they deliberately ignore the nuance because it benefits them.
Yes, your data centre in Texas draining the same aquifer that your agriculture and urban areas rely on is a problem. No, your data centre on the Pacific Northwest, sipping some water before it gets dumped into the ocean is not a problem (at least not with respect to water use).

I mean, the vast majority of our planet's water is non-potable saltwater isn't it?

emphasis on the _clean and fresh_ water.

The rural US is covered in tree farms though. Isn't deforestation caused by Brazilians burning down the amazon for agriculture?
>>
>>107875583
Ask AI?
I hear it will achieve AGI in two more weeks, and $2 trillion in additional funding.
Can you just wait 2 more weeks?

Get humans to produce as much low effort creative output as ChatGPT and watch how much water they drink.

I'm kind of confused, volcanoes are supposed to make the earth cooler but this shows most of them happening while it's warming?
>>
where does the water go? does it get converted into hydrogen and oxygen atoms? its probably in a loop, its not like it gets dirty. retard reddit argument against replacing artists.

>>107875583
is there a reason they cant use salt water

>>107876292
how would they know whether or not it's kosher salt?

i dunno can't they just dunk a rabbi in it or something

>>107875678
But globally distributing water is bad for the climate though

Why don't we just dam up the ganges river in India and use all that water for AI? It's not like there's any humans living in India who need that water. And killing off the 2 billion non-human Indian Hindu rape rats infesting that land would be excellent for the environment and human civilization.
