Been playing with taking data from Google Earth, processing it in Houdini, and running out photorealistc renders of distorted cityscapes. (no AI used btw)

Acquiring foundational site details usually means traveling to sites, finding utility access points, and tracking down disparate data sources. Google Earth is changing the way professionals work. New AI-powered data layers in Google Earth pull from billions of Google Street View images to map infrastructure assets like fire hydrants, storm drains, and more. Plus, when combined with new building footprints and land parcels you have powerful, time-saving data a click away. Inspecting utility access and site constraints from anywhere is now even easier with Google Earth. These layers are now available for Professional & Professional Advanced customers on web and Android, with coverage expanding over the coming weeks.

David Friedberg: Michael Burry’s Datacenter Math is Wrong “I actually think Michael Burberry's got this wrong.” “What Michael Burry is saying is that all of these hyperscalers have extended their depreciation schedule or the useful life of their data centers by roughly 2x, which cuts the operating costs in half when they report it in earnings. And so it's making their earnings inflate.” “So he's claiming they're cooking the books. Google first made this change in Q1 of 2021, where they said the servers are now going from 3 to 4 years. Separately in 2021, Google took networking equipment from 3 to 5 years. And then in 2023, they took it from 5 to 6 years.” “And so this is a result of this effort where they went in and did an analysis. So what happened?” “What happened in the data centers is that the data centers transitioned from being primarily data storage and data transfer systems, where you would use hard drives and RAM and memory to store data and then transmit it back out, to being data processing centers because of the AI boom.” “So as AI became more important in the data center, more of the dollars that are going into data centers were allocated towards chips from data storage, which initially was hard drives.” “And then suddenly, when you put these processors in to process the data to do AI, the majority of the spend and the majority of the energy is going towards the processors.” “I made some calls and I checked around with some other friends, and everyone says the same thing: that these 7-8 year old TPUs and GPUs that are sitting in the data centers are still being used and they're being used at 100% utilization.” “So that actually justifies and validates the depreciation schedule being much longer versus shorter.”
