Water usage has been a hot topic in the AI data center world, but the numbers may surprise you.
According to the Manhattan Institute, data centers use 0.2 percent of daily water usage in the U.S. and that number has dramatically decreased in the past few years due to a new method: liquid cooling.
By moving to 45°C liquid cooling, AI factories in favorable climates can use dry coolers instead of conventional cooling-tower-based systems, cutting facility cooling water use from roughly 2.6M gallons per MW per year to near zero.
Liquid cooling enables AI factories to be both water and energy efficient, while creating opportunities for heat reuse and dispersal to local communities, allowing these factories to become energy grid assets.

Jevons paradox
A robotic phone farm with rigs that continuously tap, swipe, and scroll through short videos. The system simulates human activity around the clock, generating artificial views, watch time, likes, and other engagement signals.
@sciencegirl This is insane 😂
Question: Does this kind of robotic phone farm setup also work for growing YouTube and TikTok channels? Or is it mainly for short-form platforms?
If there is one thing which is truly the mental illness of our time, it is this insanity of everyone to be on their phones all the time. Literally everywhere you go nowadays one sees it. It is the exception to not see someone on their phone
I am pretty strict on this in my personal life, if people want to have a conversation with me in person for help, fine, but if they grab their phone during the conversation to check stupid sh*t, i leave immediately. Meditation class? No phones allowed at all. Going to disconnect in nature, no phone. Retreat-cabin, no phone
Of course phones are useful, but people spend way too much time on it + mostly mindlessly scrolling and consuming useless garbage. Saddest example is seeing entire families, at the beach, park, wherever, all glued to their screens
Same at home. No worse example for one´s child in my opinion than children seeing their parents glued to their phones all day like mindless zombies. They ll think this behavior is normal and copy it, like we already see everywhere today
@Rainmaker1973 Yes, Vietnam has tons of these unique coffee spots! The King Koi Coffee Garden in HCMC is cool, but there are many hidden gems with beautiful gardens, lakes, and even koi carp all over the country. Coffee culture here is next level
This unique cafe in Vietnam lets diners sit amongst pools of koi carp as they eat their meals.
The King Koi Coffee Garden in in Ho Chi Minh has tables and chairs submerged into a lake where 3,000 koi swim in and among customers.
