This is a beautiful time lapse. Kind of makes me miss doing work inside a data center. 😊

Merci à Rémy Marrone pour cette interview.

Damn, a couple of R630 are so tempting! 🤦♀️ 😇 👩💻
Datacenters removem a água da natureza, devolvendo parte com impurezas, e consomem outra fatia, que evapora
Os três pilares necessários para que a inteligência artificial possa funcionar são: chips, eletricidade e água (doce). Na semana passada escrevi como o uso de energia aumenta por causa da IA. Mas em geral pouco se fala sobre o consumo de água.
A informação mais comum de se encontrar online é de que uma empresa de inteligência artificial “bebe” uma garrafa de 500 ml de água a cada 10 perguntas (prompts) feitas na sua plataforma. O número já impressiona, mas é importante olhar para ele no detalhe, porque nem todo uso de água é igual.

Google’s emissions are up 48% in 5 years. Microsoft’s are up 30% since 2020. Those soaring figures are being driven by mass investments in data centers to power AI tools.
Generative AI is a climate disaster and data center expansion must be stopped.

I gave a talk at @republica in Berlin earlier today on the growing backlash to data centers.
As tech companies build more hyperscale data centers around the world, they demand even more energy and water — and some communities are fed up.

“The Cloud now has a greater carbon footprint than the airline industry. A single data center can consume the equivalent electricity of 50,000 homes. At 200 terawatt hours annually, data centers collectively devour more energy than some nation-states.”

Tech giants are building massive data centers around the world that require a ton of water and energy. The AI boom will only accelerate it, but local opposition is growing.
I spoke to @slehuede about a group in Chile that fought a Google data center and why the tech industry’s plans must be challenged.

Practising Permacomputing: Call for workshop participants
"This autumn is dedicated to Practising Permacomputing; a concept and a nascent community of practice-oriented around issues of resilience and regenerativity in computer and network technology derived, among others, from permaculture principles. As part of this community, space is offered to makers and thinkers in digital culture (and other connected areas) to put the fundamentals and applications of #permacomputing into practice through a series of workshops, a meetup, and a concluding day of public presentations with guests. Join us to explore permacomputing futures!"
