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.

Elon Musk This is basically whats happening right now 😭😭😭🤣🤣

Satya Nadella: Microsoft’s latest Wisconsin AI data center keeps... yearly water consumption no higher than that of 1 local restaurant. "The cooling loop is filled once and the data centre can operate effectively with zero water consumption. Daily water usage across a year is roughly equivalent to what a single restaurant would use" The mechanism is mainly about replacing evaporative cooling with closed-loop direct-to-chip liquid cooling, so water moves like coolant inside a sealed machine rather than being boiled off into the air. Hot GB200-class AI racks produce too much heat for normal air cooling, so cold liquid is pushed through pipes into the servers and across metal cold plates touching the hottest chips. The liquid enters the rack cool, absorbs heat from the chips through cold plates, then exits the rack at a higher temperature and carries that heat through pipes to a huge cooling system outside the compute floor. Microsoft says Fairwater sends that hot water to cooling “fins” beside the datacenter, where 172 20-foot fans blow air across the fins and dump the heat into the outside air. The important detail is that the air cools the water through metal surfaces, so the water does not need to evaporate the way many older datacenters use cooling towers. The cooled liquid then returns to the servers, repeats the loop, and keeps absorbing heat from the chips. In older data centers, heat is often removed partly through cooling towers. Hot water meets moving air, some water evaporates, and that phase change carries heat away. Effective, but it consumes fresh water continuously. But Firwater is a closed loop because the same coolant keeps circulating through sealed pipes: it absorbs heat from the chips, releases that heat through radiator-like fins, then flows back to the chips again. For Wisconsin Fairwater, Microsoft says more than 90% of the facility uses closed-loop liquid cooling, while the remaining portion uses outside air and switches to water only on the hottest days. ---- From "Microsoft" YouTube channel, (link in comment)show more

As GOP postures against data centers, here’s what their... moneyman Elon Musk just demanded at G20 on data centers: “It is pretty straightforward, you have to have an environment that is relatively free of regulation. New things must be default legal instead of default illegal.”show more

ELON MUSK: The future of AI data centers is... space and sooner than you’d think. Mark my words… in 36 months the most economically compelling place to put AI will be space. JENSEN HUANG: The amount of energy that we need for computing is probably 1,000x more than we currently have. JEFF BEZOS: The idea of data centers in space is very realistic. Data centers in space will happen. SAM ALTMAN: No. —— Sam Altman is getting too comfortable after taking OpenAI from Elon, forgetting that in the end, the ones who control the infrastructure, data centers and energy, will decide the future of AI.show more

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman: The claims about the amount... of natural resources going into these data centers—especially the amount of water—are completely false. They used to be true: data centers used evaporative cooling. But now they don’t. You still see things online like, “Don’t use ChatGPT—it’s 17 gallons of water per query,” or whatever. That’s completely untrue—totally insane—with no connection to reality.show more

AI companies are fighting over land, electricity, and cooling... water on the ground. SpaceX is planning to skip the ground. Elon has something different in mind. Starmind. AI compute in orbit. Solar-powered satellites. Laser links. Racks of chips. A giant brain above Earth. Everyone else is building bigger data centers. SpaceX is planning to launch one.

China just took AI infrastructure underwater. The country has... reportedly launched a wind-powered underwater data center near Shanghai, designed to cool AI servers using seawater instead of traditional cooling systems 🌊🤖 Around 2,000 servers are said to be sealed inside submarine-grade modules, helping reduce land use, water consumption, and cooling energy. The project is powered by offshore wind and built for AI workloads, big data, and large-scale computing. Why it matters? AI is creating massive demand for electricity, cooling, and infrastructure. If underwater data centers prove reliable, they could become a new way to scale AI while using less energy. But the challenge is huge: corrosion, maintenance, sea conditions, and long-term reliability still need to be proven.show more

Erin Brockovich just launched a site called to track... AI data centers across the country. She’s gathering reports from communities dealing with massive water and electricity use, constant noise from cooling systems, and higher utility bills. Over a thousand people have already reported issues in just a few weeks. She’s pushing for transparency so Big Tech can’t keep making these deals behind closed doors. Erin launched the site at the end of April, and it took off immediately, they got flooded with reports within hours, so many it briefly crashed the submission form. As of this week, they’ve received over 2,700 community reports from 49 states. Water usage is the top complaint at about 41%, followed by strain on the power grid, health issues, noise, and impacts on wildlife. The map now shows 33 operational data centers, 44 under construction, and 27 proposed. She’s basically crowdsourcing the transparency Big Tech hasn’t been giving communities.show more
