- bongodongobob 1y agoYep, it's almost as bad as all the cars' cooling systems using up so much water.
- GrinningFool 1y agoEstimated 1.5 billion vehicles in use across the world. Generous assumptions: a) they're all IC engines requiring 16 liters of water each. b) they are changing that water out once a year That gives 24m cubic meters annual water usage. Estimated ai usage in 2024: 560m cubic meters. Projected water usage from AI in 2027: 4bn cubic meters at the low end.
- spongebobstoes 1y agowhat does water usage mean? is that 4bn cubic meters of water permanently out of circulation somehow? is the water corrupted with chemicals or destroyed or displaced into the atmosphere to become rain?
- Eisenstein 1y agoThe water is used to sink heat and then instead of cooling it back down they evaporate it, which provides more cooling. So the answer is 'it eventually becomes rain'.
- spongebobstoes 1y agoI understand. but why this is bad? is there some analysis of the beginning and end locations of the water, and how the utility differs between those locations?

- Arkhaine_kupo 1y agoHot water disrupts marine life for one very very big problem. Depending on the locatin of the hot water you can cause disruptions to water currents, the north atlantic waterway is being studied to how much global warming is affecting it. If greenland melts, and the water doesnt get cold up there, then the mexico current to europe ends and England becomes colder than Canada. If your AI model has a data center in the atlantic, it could be furthering that issue. (Millions of animals are also dead)
