this is just effort equilibrium something that wasnt as effective with “google it”. but ask a low effort question and get “ask claude” as a response is entirely appropriate.

junior developers on my team are often asking questions about our code base without even attempting to explore or self direct. “ask claude to look at <subsystem> and explain how its designed the key files and dependencies so that i can better understand it” is unsurprisingly effective and far cheaper than a couple of hours of opex

Apart from water usage which can be solved by using recycled water or closed loop cooling i fail to see what all the hysteria is over. Communities dont own power production and if usage causes costs to increase then investment in more production will follow.

The level of vitriol i see in all countries over data centers is looking more and more as a proxy against ai.

You can really see how a terrawatt of ai compute in space will make alot of sense vs on earth.

what about massive western economies who export wealth through imports could they not offset the effect of employment changes domestically with a decreased demand on imports?

seems to me this will effect countries who rely on mid market exports over raw or high end exports way more then others.

how many batteries do you need for a terrawatt of compute? do we have industry capacity to even build that much?

i disagree that he even meets the “modern definition”, in my opinion

now try to build this infrastructure project and get approvals at all levels of government in a time frame that doesnt see you fall behind

whose wasting 50% of their silicon production capacity to save on power. doesnt make alot of sense even with money silicon is hard to buy at scale
