    pumping out all the water

    lmao, what? Water is like the ultimate renewable resource.

    It’s crazy to me that AI companies are spinning up their own nuclear power plants to train AI, green energy is flourishing better than any projection a decade ago said it would, and AI critics are now upset that datacenters use evaporative cooling…

      Fresh groundwater is shockingly limited and slow to replenish and unlike ai slop, you’ll die without it.

      We have lots of water, sure, but most of it isn’t drinkable without even more power being burned to make it that way.
