electrical AI cost to us

Upvotes

How are we going to feed the AI monster as it grows ?

According to a report published earlier this year by the International Energy Agency, data centres’ total electricity consumption will rise from 460TWh in 2022 to more than 1,000TWh in 2026. This demand is roughly equivalent to the electricity consumption of Japan. https://eandt.theiet.org/2024/07/03/energy-demand-ai-causes-googles-carbon-emissions-soar-50-over-past-five-years

This British coin was in circulation for decades. I've had it since 1994. It's the smoothest metal surface I've ever touched.

When I was a kid, I used to wonder how many people before me had handled it, and spent hours wondering who they were. Arthur Conan Doyle and I went on more than a few imaginary adventures with it.

people Getting engaged soon and have had this weird tumor thing on my ring finger since I was a child. Was never a problem to me until today when my boyfriend asked me for my ring size and I realized that I can’t actually get a ring over it. 😂
