>hundreds of gallons of water to produce thisIws AI really worth it?
>>543890499
>>543890499Yes absolutely but better with music added. Btw one California almond has averaged12 liters(3.2 gallons) of water.
>>543890499>>543890718get off of /pol/
>>543890499is this real?
>>543890499If all the immigrants are kicked out, there could be more water for more kitty videos. I think about it alot.
Is the water gone forever?
>>543892135It's in the cats silly
>>543892135warm water speeds up eutrophication a lot so yeah in a sense
>>543890499this kino was worth every drop
>>543892135Water doesn't evenly evaporate and fall in the areas where it is scarce. AI irresponsibly wastes water that could be put to environmental and farming uses in a given area. Should we just ruin the environment so goldberg can become even more wealthy when all we get in return is funny cat videos?
>>543892059No. Look closely at the lights on the building you can see a small discrepancy as the camera pans.
>>543892135Desertification happens rapidly in the affected areas, no?
>>543892408So the water is not gone forever?
>>543892521No one said that, shill
>>543890499AI will never beat that video of some guy going on with epic adventures with his cat frens
>>543890499how many niggers could that water have saved otherwise? I want to know exactly how based this cat video is
I might not be able to afford gas or food, but thank God I have bad cat videos
>>543892135Where does the water go?
>>543892614It gets converted to electrons and pumped into the internet
jesus christ bros what the fuck are the people born today going to be like when they grow up in this kind of environment.
Some fresh numbers say that 87% of Americans are against new datacenters and 82% say that AI is developing too fast.So in essence, the majority of Americans, regardless or left or right, is against datacenters and the development of AI and what you see here is merely the feds trying to find a corner they can control and manipulate still ..
>>543892671You're already seeing it today: People's minds are formless, able to be shaped with any new input because there is no longer a constant grounding in reality. Fewer and fewer people are developing that baseline level of higher reasoning that separates man from animal. Most higher functions are being cognitively offloaded onto AI, and the brain needs trained just as much as any other muscle or organ so if you aren't even *trying* to learn anything, well...
>be water>see subhumans who enslaved your brother water droplets and turned the rivers into literal filth flowing into the area>see "assisted suicide center" aka data center>go kill urselfit's actually the "pro water" people's fault for failing to protest even a little bit against southeast asia river conditions at any point. they are larpers.
>>543890499Its an Environmental CATastrophe
>>543892671We already have two generations that spent their entire lives with easy access to the most extreme pornography imaginable, and it's looking pretty grim.
>>543890499M-more?
>>543892551OP implied that the water was lost to produce an image. But its not lost right?
>>543892684I dont think AI is developing quickly enough
>>543890718wow is this real?
>>543890499whats amazing is all of these aI threads or things we make thats 100% sarcastic and ironic ends up being boomers pass time of joy.All my mom does is watch AI dancing kittens on youtube now and going "AWWWWWWWOOOO ITS SO CUTEEEEE"AI is basically the super low IQ new television to mind control people and keep them numb.
>>543890499Humanity must suffer before we can bask in the Glory that is Superintelligence (SI).
>>543892135It gets polluted with toxic metals and forever chemicals that are not economically viable to filter out and thus won't be, but OP is still a fag for not highlighting the KWh cost instead because that's where the crux lies.Still, clean fresh water is actually somewhat finite and humanity can exceed the Earth's capacity for replenishing it, or otherwise states like Cali wouldn't be rationing it and countries like China and India wouldn't go to war over it. Desalinating water is also costly, so if datacenters would compete with human consumption for drinking etc it could absolutely create real problems, especially when people aren't smart enough to choose their basic needs and survival over scrolling social media, which we're already proving we aren't.
ai ruined funny animal videos for me
>>543892646They tried to warn us.
>>543892135Migger, don't ever think you are any smarter than the dumbest ghetto nigger.Go look up subduction from overdrafting of groundwater and then fucking kill yourself.
funny how AI in the current year just looks like youruber CGI from ages ago… https://youtu.be/Uj-Jde1nbCI?t=1535
>>543890499Yes, because the water still exists after being 'used.' Essentially free cool videos
>>543890499This is very literally one of the best uses of LLMs, everything else is horrifying authoritarian nightmare fuel.
>>543893238When the water comes out the other side of the data center it is not potable, so yes drinking water is lost(data centers cant take grey/black water they need clean water).
>>543890499>>hundreds of gallons of water to produce this>Iws AI really worth it?Worth every drop.
>>543893840>It gets polluted with toxic metals and forever chemicals that are not economically viable to filter out and thus won't beWhat the fuck do you think heatsinks are made of?The water is being ran through plastic onto hot aluminium and copper.Unironically agricultural use puts more 'forever chemicals' into water via pesticides and herbicides than almost any industrial use, from cooling to power generation.
>>543892646Fuck but I thought water and electrics don't mix
>>543895405Agriculture feeds people while data centres just make jews rich, make it easier to spy on us and threaten more jobs. I'm not liking this trade off.
>>543890499petfags are so mentally ill its unreal
>>543892684Nothing to do with feds, it's just that the board full of double digit IQ contrarians that automatically switch to the opposite side once their opinion becomes mainstream. Did you not see how may people started simping for Israelis here once the normies started partying like it's 1939?
>>543892408>Think of the starving African grass!
>>543895729It's not a trade off. What that anon said is just plain wrong. It's the exact kind of baseless fearmongering used to call anyone who didn't want the clotshot a 'cooker'.Datacenters can absolutely be used by ZOG to spy on you efficiently, they absolutely use a fuckload of electricity, but the water thing is the most brainlet bullshit imaginable, and generating cat videos is a vanishingly small segment of what the compute is used for because generation takes almost nothing compared to training and image takes almost nothing compared to high-parameter text.
>>54389049990% of electricity used is from usa taxpayers so im ok with it
>>543895405I do know, but that's not what datacenter cooling loops actually are made of and the water runs through a fuckton of pipes and tubing before it ever touches a heatsink. It also gets additives mixed in on purpose.>Data centers primarily use PFAS to cool their servers and to suppress fires. Direct PFAS pollution from data centers is difficult to ascertain and likely limited because cooling systems generally run as closed loops. But manufacturing companies that produce the PFAS materials used in data centers have historically emitted PFAS, which harms communities and ecosystems near their facilities.>Another concern is the large amount of e-waste produced by data centers, due to the constant development of faster microchips. Discarded microchips and other electronic equipment often end up in landfills, where they can release chemicals, including PFAS, into the environment.https://www.eesi.org/articles/view/data-centers-are-contributing-to-pfas-forever-chemical-pollution>Data centers that use water for cooling producesubstantial wastewater– which can contain treatment chemicals (biocides, anti-corrosion agents), concentrated minerals (scale), and even heavy metals picked up from the system. If this discharged water isn’t managed properly, it can pollute local waterways or overburden sewage treatment plants. In some cases, spikes in discharge from a data center have strained municipal water treatment capacity, raising concerns about water quality for the community downstreamhttps://www.fwpcoa.org/content.aspx?page_id=5&club_id=859275&item_id=130961>This water, released to prevent buildup of minerals and scaling in pipes, can contain heavy metals or Pfas, the “forever chemicals” that are linked to an array of health problems when ingested. These Pfas can be found in the “closed loop” cooling systems that the datacenter industry lauds for using less water.https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/sep/08/us-datacenters-wastewater-pollution
>>543893238>okay so I ate everything in your kitchen then tool a fat shit on your counter>the food isn't gone, it's right there on your kitchen counter jejNeck yourself, shill.
>>543895573It creates an electric shock that powers the data centre
>>543893896I hate it when I show a funny animal video to someone and they immediately say it's AI
>>543896942>contd over charlimitBut like I said, the KWh consumption is the greater environmental load/burden and given that most AI output is garbage and more single-use than a gazillion plastic sandwich bags, used solely to hook people to a platform that serves them advertizing and having no real-world value or worth whatsoever, and crucially, never ever becoming economically viable and profitable in the slightest, it's only right to place some question marks here.
>>543890499This is the only thing ai is good for
>>543890499I see a kot I smile Yes worth it
>>543890499Better than producing fuckin almonds
>>543892408Yes, we should.
>>543897444tek tek gurugat
>>543896942Did you even read so much as the headlines of what you posted? Because here's what they actually say:1>Companies that manufacture fire retardants cause ecological damage! Datacenters use fire retardants!>E waste from rapidly changing tech is bad! Datacenters use rapidly changing tech!"Hitler Drank Water Too" tier arguments. Absolutely no mention of those chemicals ending up in wastewater, because they're used in closed loop systems.2This one hurt to read because it was missing a bunch of spaces and rambled, literally felt like it was written by an 8b LLM or a jeet.Anyway, I don't know if you did it on purpose or not, but you misquoted and missed the critical word "Traces". The article itself goes on to call them essentially a nothingburger, as even in the densest datacenter area of the US.. The treatment plants keep up just fine. Because it's essentially just local water that's been concentrated by evaporation. That's what scale is. The biocides are just trace chlorine and (surprise) copper, which is antimicrobial.3.This one is hilarious because your quote has almost nothing to do with the articles issue, which is doubly hilarious because it runs counter to the toxic and biocide claims - bacteria and algae bloom were found in datacenter wastewater.
>>543890499Not my problem
>>543890499If you have a house of water who's ass do you kiss?
>>543890499Wealth isn't just money, real power it money.It's water.
>>543890499Look up how much water is used in public pools, now look up how many public pools exist in America alone. Now here's another kicker, retard. Look up water parks, come back and complain about a teaspoon of water later.
>>543894997That's fucking stupid, Skri
>>543892059No, they actually filmed the kittens individually and then edited the footages together.
>>543890499Like me cats Hate the jewsSimple as.
Oh man wait until you see how much water it takes to keep Indians alive
>>543893127
>>543892059THAT FISH IS A BRICK
>>543890499What do you think happens to the water...?
>>543890499I mean. It's only 10% of what Golf Courses take and 0.1% of what almond take to grow?Are you retarded?
>>543893127E
>>543890499They start dancing so young. My cat never dance like this. Where did i fail?
>>5438931278
It's real!
how many trillions of gallons do you think we wasted to feed niggers and jeets?how many millions of miles given to monoculture so ugaboogassy the African breed sow can shit out ten more niggers forever?i hope Ai kills them all,more Ai cats dancing please
>>543893840>Mirrors are too costly bro!
>>543892646Well the internet is a series of tubes. Computer science virgins stay seething. The plumber chads will inherit the earth
>>543894997raw river water isn't potable anyways you dishonest hindu scamming faggot piece of shit
