🔥 Data centers dominate the world - and this is just the beginning!
📈 The demand for data centers is growing at a dizzying pace. And you know what? It shows no signs of slowing down!
💡 Everything about artificial intelligence has become greedy for electricity. Estimates indicate that data centers worldwide consume between 1% and 2% of the total global electricity, and this percentage is expected to increase with the growth of the artificial intelligence industry. By 2028, nearly 12% of the total electric power in the United States will be used to operate data centers. Outside the United States, countries are investing billions of dollars to ensure their sovereignty in the field of artificial intelligence - because these centers must operate around the clock without any interruption.
🚀 Why is this important now
📊 The rapid growth of artificial intelligence requires new energies
🌍 The world is entering the technological leadership race
⚡ The energy infrastructure is being restructured to fit the new reality
💥 Data centers also use large amounts of water for cooling purposes, where servers are cooled to prevent overheating, and studies indicate that some large data centers can consume millions of liters of water annually👀
But there are harms to the environment as
The artificial intelligence industry has indirect effects on the environment, as it can make production in all sectors more efficient and less costly, which could lead to increased consumption and consequently increased demand for natural resources and their depletion.
Therefore, the future development of artificial intelligence must be accompanied by strict environmental policies to ensure that its benefits do not come at the expense of the environment.
