Our gov is a dumb fuck bit he did one thing right requiring them to disclose their usage information. They did but redacted the important parts. How the fuck do they get to get away with this?
Fuck Data Centers and anyone that supports this shit
There’s a subgroup on Lemmy that will absolutely melt down if you mention data center water usage. And I can’t help but think “The Water Hoax” rhetoric churning through the LessWrong community has played a major role.
However you square it, though, you can’t help but consider something like this peculiar.

Incredible, I didn’t think I could hate anyone involved here any more, and yet.
If you attack the electricity and carbon sides of data centers, you might at least be able to divert some of the money tied up in AI towards the construction of renewable energy. Those are also stronger arguments than the water usage argument. Arguing from your most defensible position(s) is generally ideal.
