The question is who will service massive data centers in northern Québec or Norwegian mountains in winter.
They will have to be robotized to a large degree. And the few humans necessary will have to be very well paid. The social cost is real.
- NishanStepak 2mo agoWith the Nordic area, it is already happening. I am not sure it will be as much of a problem, because there will be a lot less jobs with automation. The promise of a good job even in a cold climate will draw people. It will be like the oil fields, except with hydroelectric, wind, and cold climates which will help sustainability. Nvidia and many of the large data companies have already been moving north. North will probably include Alaska as well, because of the cold weather, large amounts of hydroelectric power, and the people used to working remotely.
