Mark Zuckerberg's Nuclear-Powered Data Center for AI Derailed by Bees
Mark Zuckerberg's Nuclear-Powered Data Center for AI Derailed by Bees
Even if AI turns out to be a hype cycle, getting a lot of clean energy could make it worth the hassle.
Meta has faced a setback in its plan to build data centers run on nuclear power. The FT reports that CEO Mark Zuckerberg told staff last week that the land it was planning to build a new data center on was discovered to be the home of a rare bee species, which would have complicated the building process.
I hope that after the bubble bursts the nuclear reactors can be used to put energy on the grid and maybe they'll find something worthwhile to do with all those compute GPUs.
@FlyingSquid Long live the bees!

It won't.
Want to get to clean energy? Get a government with the guts to tell oil companies and car companies to get fucked.
And while they're at it they can tell the purveyors of Grand Theft Autocorrect to get fucked as well.
@ZDL same line bros used to greenwash crypto
Yep.
Better greenwashing: actually do green things.
BEES!
Beads?
Not beads, BEES! RUN!
THEY'RE IN MY EYES!!
The bees come before his vanity projects.
