The Hated One - "Ai Will Wage Wars Over Water"
The Hated One - "Ai Will Wage Wars Over Water"
The Hated One has been pretty solid in the past regarding privacy/security, imho. I found this video of his rather enlightening and concerning.
- LLMs and their training consume a LOT of power, which consumes a lot of water.
- Power generation and data centers also consume a lot of water.
- We don't have a lot of fresh water on this planet.
- Big Tech and other megacorps are already trying to push for privatizing water as it becomes more scarce for humans and agriculture.
---personal opinion---
This is why I personally think federated computing like Lemmy or PeerTube to be the only logical way forward. Spreading out the internet across infrastructure nodes that can be cooled by fans in smaller data centers or even home server labs is much more efficient than monstrous, monolithic datacenters that are stealing all our H2O.
Of course, then the 'Net would be back to serving humanity instead of stock-serving megacultists. . .

That's definitely not true, data centers are way more efficient than home servers. But yes, they use water to be more efficient.
