One of the (many) reasons I think people are so anti-AI is that it’s a gratuitous display of wealth inequality. The average person’s life is difficult, expensive, and getting any kind of loan sucks - unless you’re raising billions of dollars to build an AI data center.

As analysts pressed him on its poor performance so far during an investor call on Monday, Mr Son noted that Jesus was also misunderstood and criticised, according to three people who were on the call.
Two of them said Mr Son used the analogy to suggest that his reputation would be reassessed if the fortunes of his investments improved.
Mr Son, who has in the past quoted Yoda from the Star Wars films and urged investors to "listen to the Force", also suggested the Beatles had not been popular when they first started.
He spoke after he was asked whether he felt he was misunderstood by the media and whether there was a gap between the public's view of SoftBank and his vision, according to another person who joined the call.
SoftBank declined to comment.

Data centers are a two fold mechanism for fast tracking water and energy privatization. It's why billionaires and politicians are forcing them as quickly as possible. They undo all the progress we've made on climate change and increase the cost of both electricity and water forever

@MorePerfectUS
Nearly 50,000 people in the Lake Tahoe area have been told that their utility will stop providing power to them, because it's redirecting that power to data centers.

NV Energy, the Nevada utility that has supplied most of Lake Tahoe’s electricity for decades, says that next year it will stop servicing homes in the area, and instead direct that electricity to the growing demand from Nevada data centers.

Northern Nevada is one of the fastest-growing data-center corridors in the country.

The North American Electric Reliability Corporation — the top grid oversight agency for the US, Canada, and parts of Mexico — issued a rare alert on Monday, urging operators to address new risks posed by the deluge of data centers connecting to the grid.

NERC issued the Level 3 alert for "essential action" — the agency's highest level — after issuing two previous warnings about data centers in the last nine months.

The agency sends alerts to the entities that make the electric grid run smoothly, from regional transmission organizations to power plant owners.

This time, the agency stressed that grid operators lack "sufficient processes, procedures, or methods to address risks associated with computational loads."

NERC says that data centers — particularly ones running AI workloads — are prone to wild power swings.

The constant, rapid fluctuations between extremely high and extremely low power use levels can put entire electric grids at risk of going offline.

The vast data centres that power artificial intelligence guzzle huge amounts of energy but they also have another alarming impact, according to new research. They are creating “heat islands,” warming the land around them by up to 16 degrees Fahrenheit, and making life hotter for more than 340 million people.

There are still big gaps in our understanding of the impacts of data centres, even as they boom in number, said Andrea Marinoni, associate professor with the Earth Observation group at the University of Cambridge, and an author of the study, which has not yet been peer-reviewed.

Marinoni and his colleagues decided to dig into one under-researched impact: the heat they release through their energy-intensive processes, including computation and powering cooling systems.

To do this, they looked at temperature data over the last 20 years from remote sensors and mapped it against the locations of AI “hyperscalers” — vast data centres that house thousands of servers and can stretch over a million square feet, which have mostly been built within the last decade.

They focused on more than 6,000 data centres located away from highly dense urban areas, as surface temperatures around these were less likely to have been affected by other factors, such as manufacturing or the heating of homes. The researchers also filtered out seasonal impacts, global warming trends and other influences.

They found surface temperatures increased by an average of 3.6 degrees Fahrenheit after a data centre started operations. In extreme cases, nearby temperatures reached up to 16.4 degrees Fahrenheit.

A data center drained 30M gallons of water unnoticed — until residents complained about low water pressure
Residents in Fayetteville, Georgia, noticed low water pressure last year. The utility discovered two unaccounted-for water connections at one of the nation’s largest data center campuses.
