Go explain to these people why “bigger DCs are actually better”: https://youtu.be/DGjj7wDYaiI
Here’s the MIT Press detailing the ridiculous carbon and water impacts of data centers: https://thereader.mitpress.mit.edu/the-staggering-ecological-impacts-of-computation-and-the-cloud/
“AI” is not worth this.
Sure, some of them are much bigger and more environmentally destructive.
So this is Jenkins except it guzzles water and ruins the lives of people near data centers?
Guess there’s no accounting for stupid.
No, I am 100% certain they know that the vast majority of people don’t care and some people really really hate it, but nobody actually enjoys it.
lol same. I thought the originals were a myth.
I’ll take my huge stack of Windows 3.1 floppies and see myself out.
We shall never know lol.
I feel like the “ai” upscaling comment is probably right. The women in the last frame have a lot more detail and contrast, in addition to a partially illegible price tag that wasn’t there before.
Like, it could be from a different photo, but why would the creator go find a whole different picture when they had one right in front of them?
Damn good song. Unfortunate name though.
Guess they settled on just the psychopath part.
And yet it uses so much more energy per capita. This is not like a secret, dude.
No. Nobody has exact figures because there is a mountain of intentional obfuscation hiding it. We know that it is a tremendous amount of water because we can estimate and we can see the data of towns literally going into extreme droughts right next to data centers, but is is suspiciously difficult to get actual numbers. This should tell you a lot.

Did… did you not actually watch the video? The video very clearly answers this. Like, multiple times.
