There are more than 8,000 data centers worldwide, but this is not enough to handle the energy needs of generative AI. A ChatGPT query takes about 10 times more energy than a simple Google search. Training a large language model can produce as much CO2 as the lifetime of five gas-powered cars and use as much water as a small country. Even if we generate enough power, our aging grid is increasingly unable to deliver it to where it is needed. That’s why data center companies like Vantage are building closer to where power is generated, as the industry invests in alternative energy and creative ways to strengthen the grid.

Good morning. I registered using your link, please add me to your group.
trading in general. I tried watching other YT trading channels, but they made the concepts more complicated. I was almost giving up until when discovered your channel. I love the way you break down the content and explain everything in detail. The videos are easy to follow
Have the device compute the power needed rather than the cloud
Well that seems like a simple place to start
It won't stay this way. The power draw of computers decreases constantly because it's a direct cost.
These power centers should be required to be self sufficient through renewable sources
want there a tv show about this a long time ago? Where all electricity died because the computer would syphon it all?
Just make them in Norway and Canada etc. Places who do not lack water.
Building Europes biggest datacenter near me now in Norway. We have abundant power and so much water. Perfect place for data centers, compared to the "desert"
Yes they all seem extremely busy getting a.i up and running so they can replace all of us.
And yet most companies dont even need ai, and are just surfing the hype wave to boost shares
I don't remember anyone getting hyped about AI, yet they continue to force it on us. WE DON'T WANT IT.
They forgot about crypto miners
Does anybody have an answer to the question what mankind needs AI for? And please stay away from the usual hollow marketing phrases.
holy skibidi! our world is screwed if this keep going
That amount of power is really insignificant when you compare it to the value it brings. 5 cars to teach a large language model lol. Whats more important, 5 hillbillies driving a car around doing nothing of use, or training the collective knowledge of the entire human species into a format that any human can read and understand?
We have plenty of water on the earth , if we convert the ocean water into fresh water , then AI models can run efficiently and solve future problems ! It will also benefit the water-lacked countries.
So focus should be to develop the technology to convert the salt water into fresh water .
No way one ChatGPT query takes 5Wh energy. Training must have been factored into this equation, and that's misleading.
So this is why our energy bills rise? These centers use so much energy and everyone has to foot the bill to pay for it.
16% of the power consumption probably paying 1% of the cost.
Then we demonize crypto mining back then
If only we could make more nuclear power plants..
One bit of AI uses more weight than 2 elephants and a squierrl. Their comparisons dont make sense if we dont know the thing theyre compating. How big is Denmark? Idk but it uses the same as 4 Denmarks
I predict brownouts and blackouts we have to fix this like yesterday
I’m glad electric cars will be the solution to all our problems.
the speed this female voice goes, is way to fast for european people
7:58 This guy is the ceo of an "end to end solution optimizing" company doing press calls for 3.5mill sub channel, but couldn't get half decent mic for the interview. If you 10x'd $10 it wouldn't sound like your on a dial up connection. C'mon Rahul
how about setting up data centers on the dark side of the moon where cooling wouldn’t be an issue?
Not my problem, tell companies to stop then????
Ai – The cancer of the world
I wonder what story they make about AI considering they loved to complain about crypto doing the same thing or is creating will smith eating a spaghetti more important?
Windmills Green New Scam
Having a solar set up could help since the illuminati is in control and makes humans pay for electricity.
what a missed opportunity to shine a light on the nessesity of transitioning to 100% renewable energy
Wow. That cable management is embarrassing.
Can we use salt water instead of fresh water to cool these data centers?
14:00 – Another false statement.
"Huge energy savings for each query ran locally on device versus cloud"
NO! Servers are more efficient than local devices; the energy consumption is just shifted to residential usage rather than Data Center usage.
9:55 – Braindead take. AI is causing water withdraw? LMAO come on.
First, they do not use water for cooling. Second, even if they did they can cycle the water to heat/cool.
Move them to Alaska or the North Pole. That will keep them cold and Pinney
Oh no, fossil fuels and a few million windmills and solar panels can't save you anymore. What's that? Gratitude for creating an oil monopoly instead of going electric and harnessing zero-point energy or the free electricity that Tesla discovered and invented? If only you had chosen those paths from the start instead of giving in to greed and money. What's wrong? Can't your fossil fuel monopoly satisfy your greed anymore? It's almost like it's built on the same flawed principles as money and monopolies.
Just seems we need more power generation . Heck maybe this is time to setup huge solar and wind farms everywhere along with nuclear and molten sodium batteries as backup.
We need to ask AI how to create more sustainable energy sources
Good time to invest power generating companies?
The cloud is just someone else’s computers
I was wondering why chat gpt limited your questions
didnt know how much power is actually needed to run it
So much resources being allocated to things nobody wants. Stockmarket is plummeting due to the failure of AI hype.
There is NOTHING good about AI…
Boomers complaining about EVs overloading the grid boutta have a field day with this one
Little pucks that measure temperature of the mineral oil cooling XMFR cores is not the answer for the US.
The US has a massive transmission issue. We can’t move power from where it is generated to where it is needed efficiently. The average transmission project takes a decade because of how much paper pushing and red tape is involved.
We also need to build more nuclear plants. We don’t have enough reasonable space for big hydro projects, and wind/solar really sucks for the power grid. If we want clean generation, nuclear is absolutely the way to go. The ONLY thing bottlenecking nuclear is politics. We have to change our priorities.
