We’re building AI that is different. It answers to the planet, not Big Tech. And it’s now more European – which means more independent, and more private.

Many AI datacenters use closed-loop cooling. Loaded once with RO purified water without any additions and zero discharge. I know because I work in one.
However, it’s the bad actors that get the headlines.
I don’t know if I’d say “many”, but the water usage is a red herring anyway. More importantly, data centers invariably use a lot of power and they are explicitly the reason we are currently reactivating mothballed nuclear and coal power plants, the reason we are not shutting down natural gas plants, in fact many of them are running temporarily, regularly or even full-time on their own small-scale natural gas turbines.
And they are doing this to generate mass quantities of shitty text and images, and to train new models to do the same, things that provide little to no actual value to humanity.
AI datacenters are an environmental catastrophe, whether they use any water or not.
something doesn’t match… Eco friendly search engine with LLM (which are known for guzzling water) ?!?

And it only doubles the amount of power usage of any metropolitan area it is installed in…
question: if it is a closed loop, how do you dump the heat out of the water? To the air? Doesn’t that alter the climate of local habitat?
How come that one town lost water pressure?
Yeah what a nonsensical pile of shite. If anything it’s a good case study of why not to take any notice of marketing.
