@pmarca Seems a lot of people misunderstanding what the limited access of new models is for, itβs for critical infrastructure institutions to build defensive capabilities, thought you would understand this Marc.
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 45Β°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.

@altcap I donβt think equity share is the right route, imo they should wait a couple more years, allow these companies to buildout and scale, and if tokens do become a utility of sorts just 1% tax the labs and hyperscalers.
