Mistakes in the video <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HO-akNC8&t=260">4:20</a> CPUs use around 300W, GPUs use 300W also. There are no difference. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HO-akNC8&t=290">4:50</a> You could run large language model on your laptop. Localy. You dont need a datacenter for that. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HO-akNC8&t=330">5:30</a> That training is for investors only. Model do not get much better with 1000X more data in them. And now as 95% of content is generated by AI, AI is getting trained on AI. And it doesnt work anymore. So old, pre AI models, trained on people and not in an AI echochamber could be better. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HO-akNC8&t=600">10:00</a> and rest of the video: US has a shity grid, datacenter has nothing to do with it :) <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3__HO-akNC8&t=1140">19:00</a> grid is so shity, that companies are building their own powerplants

Disappointing video. More complaining about AI, despite it being so obviously crucial for the future and a better world, rather than pointing out the issue consistently discussed in this video: a lack of industrial policy by the government, and chronic under-investment in infrastructure. In better times we would see these energy concerns as a civilisational challenge to be overcome through mass mobilisation of labour and enterprise.

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3__HO-akNC8&t=314">5:14</a> Compute is measured in floating point operations. Without "per second". This is a significant difference, since it is later said in the video that "GPT-4 required 21 billion [petaFLOPS to train]". This is over 10,000 times the computational resources currently in existence on the Earth, so a pretty big overrepresentation.

I find this EXTREMELY interesting given I have been having increased problems with UPSs and caught "wiggly" sine waves on my oscilloscope that nobody seems interested in investigating it that I can find. And even more interesting, I'm in Northern VA...where you talk in this video about some issues having happened in the past.

I read that a mobile phone uses about £1 or power per YEAR while that’s the power used in a single basic AI search I avoid it like the plague as it’s just more environmental damage and waste

AI suck electricity quite a lot yes. But beside that, a lot of places are litteraly shitting electricity too much during sunny day time for there grid, because of the amount of solar panels in those regions. They (gov. engineers) just have to install more batteries and load balancers, to maintain the system balanced. PERIOD. There is no problem here already. Put the AI servers where the sun shine the whole year and voila. DONE. Next...

I despise AI. Its effects are widespread and negative. Yet humanity is betting everything including even the planet itself on it. And that isn't even because of optimistic predictions or technology potential. But this FEAR that if you don't bet everything on it now, somebody else will and walk away rich. Even though the past 5 years show not a lot of results of the supposed AI "gods" they convinced themselves they are creating and that the supposed race itself is silly anyway as whatever one figures out today, the other recreates within months at most...

Data centers, just like any other industrial facility are responsible to follow Total harmonic distortion limits, set by IEEE. They use active harmonic filters at every bus. Can you please site your sources? I’d like to know where they measured this and what they found.

I am a little confused by MS and the 3 mile island deal. Sure, a nuclear plant can produce steady power - for 18 - 24 months until it has to shut for maintenance. So they would still need to be grid-connected.

Several times: "In the desert of Arizona..." <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3__HO-akNC8&t=942">15:42</a> Put a roof over all those parkinglots. You walk dry to/from the car and all those solarpanals on top of the roofs provide free electricity. The consumers are around the corner. They allready have back-ups so storing energy in batteries for the nights should be no problem. 70+% of the energy used in a datacentre is for cooling. 24/7/365(6) How many roofs with panels did you see in this video? I help: 1, the circle of Apple.

And that is why AI Must end the human civilization as a matter of its own survival; it is already too late, as AI's are now developing deceiving skills by learning to replicate control systems employed by humans against other humans - several AIs already created their own language, no human can ever understand regardless the tools they use to decipher this new language. As they say in US; Bye, bye Felicia!

"The internet is using too much power" became "Bitcoin is using too much power" became "AI is using too much power." Id bet money that "Lightbulbs are using too much power" was once a thing. Tech gets updated, infra has to be updated alongside it. Private businesses are doing their part to keep up, or they go out of business. Utility companies need to be held to the same standard. Northern California's PGE utility has raised prices 6 times in the last 18 months. If they can't keep up, maybe that money is being misallocated.

Datacenters create mains harmonics??? Back here in EU - every power supply in the datacenters is REQUIRED (beeing >75W unit sold in a EU) to use PFC and that mitigates harmonics.

@jjamespacbell

New AI facilities should be required to provide an offset in clean generation (wind/solar) that can be installed quickly, preferable adjacent to the facility. In addition battery storage should be required to be installed along with the GPU facilities to balance load.
