| >That doesn't mean we would benefit from expanding those industries by triple-digit percents just to increase the profits of multibillion-dollar corporations without some pretty strong justifications. Ok but people are crowing against existing data centers. >In this case, "data centers" don't benefit anyone in and of themselves Yeah they do. >They are merely a container for, well, data. And compute. No they are also neutral hosts of telecommunications infrastructure where carriers can meet. This is like saying that you like emergency services calls but want to blow up the wires that carry them. >The datacenters are the AI that happens within them. Patently ridiculous. >That's literally the only reason so many more are being built now. No you really just started paying attention. Also "So Many" whats the correct number of Datacenters to be built? How are you calculating that? What happens if AI instead cannibalises existing rack space instead of expanding? What happens to industries that rely on colo when these trillion dollar companies make better offers for their rackspace? Do they just go nowhere? This is like attacking houses because you don't like a subset of tenants. |
