It's a pain in the arse, yeah. But I wonder, tho, if this may end sooner than anticipated because of outside causes.
We've heard from Microsoft that they have hardware waiting to be installed because they have no capacity for it, and in one of the latest News Roundups from Gamernexus they mentioned how there are new datacenters in the US completely empty because they have no power. The US power grid is, in a way, obsolete and they don't have enough electricity to power all those AI centers they're planning to build.
So, unless they're confident that they can build those data centers in other countries with neither political nor electric problems, this whole business may have to hit the brakes sooner than expected.
One can dream, right? |
I think that's a unique case specific to the USA... Europe, Oceania, Asia are all rolling out huge data centers for A.I without the same dramas surrounding energy.
Plus... Like what Musk did, they can get "modular" Diesel generators to temporarily power these data centers whilst new electricity capacity gets installed if they were super desperate.
