The issue being discussed was Malta running out of energy because of AI data centers. It will not. Nor will we in the rest of Europe. Regular data centers aren’t filled to the brim with power hungry GPU servers. They’re also not very good for running AI workloads.
… No. That’s not how it works. AI datacenters are just datacenters with a very heavy focus on GPUs and TPUs. We have plenty of datacenters with GPU and TPU offerings in Europe, just no datacenter that is fully dedicated to it.
Missing the point. This has only become an issue since specific AI data centres have become a thing. My point still stands, I dont believe there are any specific AI centres in Europe which use a hell of a lot more energy, generate more noise and more pollution
Sure, but there are definitely AI companies with europe based servers. OpenAI is one of them. Your comment was about servers being overseas because we dont have AI datacenters, I’m saying that’s not true.
Yes, we don’t have AI datacenters, but we still host AI in europe, in multi-purpose datacenters.
You dont need an AI-specific datacenter to have a datacenter serving AI.

No, the chain of comment had switched to where the servers are located. Someone claimed overseas, and that was the topic of this chain, then.
The chain of comment specifically mentions that no one is claiming it will run on AI datacenters.
The AI runs on AI data centers. Why would you run it on hardware that isn’t actually efficient for the workload? It’d cost more for less performance.
