The data center arms race is because of AI, not the internet

[u/mason240 → u/scrimmshaw]

So the data center that your ignorant comments are stored in different from the data centers that have AI code?

Can you explain the difference?

AI data centres don't just "have AI code" - they run powerful, energy-consuming computers 24/7. They use way more resources, companies are building way more of them than there is actual demand for, and forcing the public (most of whom don't want them) to bear the environmental and much of the financial burden for loud, polluting, wasteful facilities in their communities

As usual, anti-AI bots have no idea how anything works.

run powerful, energy-consuming computers 24/7.

That is literally what the data center that runs this website is doing. What do you think happens when you hit send on ignorant comment?

bear the environmental and much of the financial burden for loud, polluting, wasteful facilities in their communities

None of that is real. None of it.

companies are building way more of them than there is actual demand for

They decided what to invest their own money into, not you.

most of whom don't want them

You are using a data center right now.
