400k electric cars - over what period of time? Your hyperbolic comparison is worthless, and until you give it a parameter that grounds it in reality it's just clickbait. Pull yourselves together and show your audience some respect.

US doesn't care about climate change.
@barbarachambers7974the messed up all the internet's indexing and decades worth of mine! now i can't even find a replacement rainfly for my freaking tent!!
@incubusfamiliarSo they’ll build nuclear plants to power AI but not to give cheap power to the people.
@spooks196Never trust robot voice
@matticusminot8086Deceitful Global warming lies thrown in at the end. Thumbs down to propaganda.
@mattmicheli8847Full scale AI surveilance
@S4mzy-y5hThe matrix said it all
@LOLO-lm7prWhy so much water for temperature control 😢
@JanetPaul-wm9quData centers are not ready for prime time since they use too much electricity and fresh water which is in short supply
@rroulette2660Internet works fine without them.
@nathantremblay5662Perhaps they could build them deep underground where it’s naturally cool, and they wouldn’t take up needed space on land.
@sunsetfree5358Why cant they build them in the in cold environments ? With controlled venting to cool off ? Shutters that let in the cold air ?
@jrighteous1984Even knowing how they work, I still don't want one near me.
@Mother_of_Dogs_82Primary cause of global warming😂. Please.

@CôngTínTrần-g8nNow that energy consumption is going to reach critical levels basically no one is stopping to think. This might be bad, and how it is already affecting daily life. Slow and methodic take over.
@alexfelder2Why isn’t it possible with modern technology and engineering to build a self sufficient data centre? A data centre that uses its own hydro and recycled water? Then data centres wouldn’t be such an impact on local communities and economies.
@user-mw3mb2uv8nSo they want everyone to go green and sustainable so they can funnel as much power as possible to these data centers, gotcha...
@subculture9119The death of natural resources on full display.
@Novelist1029Microsoft, Amazon, Google, and Apple are by far the largest users of data centers, but it goes much further than that. Probably the second-biggest user is surveillance on everything we do in our lives. Think about all the cameras we face, just cameras. This is more than just photographs we take: banks, schools, police command centers, sheriff's command centers, traffic cameras, the FBI, Secret Service, and military. It's just that every aspect of our lives is recorded and stored at data centers so the government can keep tabs on us.
@PaulAliceJEnvironmental terrorism!
@Chasm7-s5jAnd if you don't want data centers, turn off your computers, your cell phones, shut down 'the cloud', and almost all businesses. Get over it! We MUST HAVE DATA CENTERS!
@rrl4245If corporations and their owners would pay their fair share of taxes, maybe the public won't skirm so much.
@ec5394Government control
@Robin-p6g6sSky net
@NiclouyatRidiculous !
@sonofyah-qx8fmI think we will have less robust facilities in the future.. Memories will be stored in ultra small containers or capsules and we will store them at home. That's why the new technology will be way cheaper and investing in data centers a total disaster..
@positiveaffirmations4437Government lies
@InlikeMikeQuinnI wouldn’t trust the Associated Press. Tell me if it was daylight outside landed here on accident.
@buckfiden7553Nations were built on paper. Electronic is evil.
@treepruner2And the type of that that's is stored and whom "helps" that's even more eyebrow raising.
@AndreeaCeIf these things don’t find the cure to OCD then what are you doing
@786LewisData centers are causing climate change using up water and a lot of electricity.
@lrg5705I still don't understand this at all. "Data centers use up electricity and cool with water." That's all it said, while using Chat GPT to compose the piece, probably.
@bigred9428But Chat GPT composing and Google searching are 2 different things.
@bigred9428See how asking grok to put celebs in bikinis consumes tons of energy??
@misharimsa2908ICI DATA CENTER IMBÉCILE
@joelbelanger3752Nobody is asking for this. The government is forcing this on us. Act now or it’s Checkmate
@dloc1031A data center is the library of Alexandria. One fire, one bomb can destroy it.
@quartytypoThis needs to slow down…..global warming give me a break
@francinepelrine282If any of these companies eliminates the cost of the fraud of Climate change, they will save money and advance past the others
@Cback-i3bDidn't explain how they work.
@katiez1941Sky Lab, in the making.
@rbs0648The energy math is the part that should worry every manufacturer planning to deploy AI on the shop floor. If one large data center uses the same electricity as 400,000 EVs, imagine what happens when every factory wants real-time AI for quality inspection, predictive maintenance, and digital twins running simultaneously. Edge computing closer to the production line might end up being less of a nice-to-have and more of an energy necessity.
@IIoTWorldWE HELPED SAVE THE WORLD FROM HILTER, NOW WHO WILL SAVE US FROM THE NEW DICTATOR WHO HAS COME BACK FORM MODELS TO GENOCIDE.
