Grab a magnifying glass. We keep hearing claims that AI data centers are draining America's water supply. To put those scary numbers in perspective, I mapped them out. The massive baseline data is from the U.S. Geological Survey, and the tiny data center footprint is from Lawrence Berkeley. #DataCenters #AIInfrastructure #AIDataCenter #HPC (X article link in first reply below)

reposting this, bad link! Just dropped: Real TCO numbers for a production 248-GPU AI cluster. On-prem vs AWS, GCP, and OCI. The gap is bigger than most people expect. Full report with real pricing and transparent assumptions. Read it here: oldsresearch.com/ai-infrastr…

Awful Tech Today: how AI will scr*w me today. Delta, my carrier of choice, is going to use AI for ticket pricing. Wonder if it will be smart enough to figure out that I go to Germany for ISC every year? Or to SC, or other events, and use that to jack up my personal price? Nah, they wouldn't do that, right? theverge.com/news/709556/del…

Delta Air Lines is using AI to set the maximum price you’re willing to pay

And seeing “amazingly favorable” results.
