>80% are qualified with "inside eight large data center hubs created in China’s “East West Computing Strategy”." Most new data centers are built elsewhere this is a pedantic misinterpretation of the scope of East Data, West Computing. the hubs are all in tier one cities with the power generation capacity to handle them. each hub is comprised of dozens of data-centers and are the place to build because of large economic incentives, infra guarantees, and university-trained talent living in close proximity see https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2095809924005058 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S209580992... >This initiative is expected to accommodate up to 95% of China’s digital data needs through this reorganization >Within a year of implementation, more than 112 new data centers have either been authorized, under construction, or completed across the planned computing hubs this project itself is the thing that has all the other nation states in the world clutching pearls about not supporting their native AI corporations enough. it's something you and everyone else should really familiarize yourself with because it is one of the major items influencing current realpolitik and economic decisions (and is likely going to be the thing that'll lead us to a thrice-in-a-lifetime sized recession but that's a convo for a different day)
