  13. RE: thepit.social/@peter/116616785

    A “category-level credibility catastrophe”

    Not absolutely sure what this phrase means but it sounds dire; it’s from this conclusion: “Both messengers and messaging are part of the problem; there’s a category-level credibility catastrophe. Whether the backlash against AI infrastructure would exist without the CEO’s favorability collapse is unknowable, but the correlation is there: as the industry’s public faces became more politically visible—and more unpopular—the infrastructure they were building became less welcome. The AI industry is being judged on 1) the infrastructure enabling it, 2) the products they sell, and 3) the character and political motivations of the people building them.”

    They tried their hardest to force this crap on us, and it didn't work.

    Next time they need to appeal to people's inherent racism and misogyny, then they can get away with it.

    "AI will make Brown People go away and turn Women into submissive wives"

    That'll win over enough of the public for it to work.....

    There is a world of difference between the #LLM #GenAISlop being peddled by narcisist #TechBros and the use of AI in medical, scientific and military system. The latter has been a boon to its users while the former is a money pit feeding a asset-less bubble about to burst big time. Not to mention Its consequential invasive #Slop and resulting #unemployment wave.

    When we on #Mastodon rant about the #AI #MarketingHype we’re talking about #GenAISlop and its outrageous demands for resource destroying #DataCentres as well as the #AirHeads who peddle that particular #SnakeOil.

  19. #India's #DataCentre boom confronts a looming water challenge

    Nikhil Inamdar, 9 November 2025

    Excerpt: "From #Chile and #Mexico to #Georgia in the #US and #Scotland, serious concerns have been raised around data centres guzzling excess water for their cooling systems and consuming vast amounts of energy at the cost of local communities.

    "In an energy starved, water-scarce India, these challenges are even more accentuated.

    "According to the World Bank, India has 18% of the world's population, but only 4% of its water resources, making it among the most water-stressed countries in the world.

    "India's data centre water consumption, meanwhile, is expected to more than double from 150 billion litres in 2025 to 358 billion litres by 2030, putting further pressure on its water table.

    "Moreover, most of India's data centres are concentrated in urban clusters like #Mumbai, #Hyderabad, #Chennai and #Bengaluru which have strong competing water needs."

  24. I don't think #UK #datacentres are going to be running on gas/oil cycle #turbines, much, soon, nor later. Even combined cycle would be optimistic.

    #Gas packing plants, #pipelines, and #refineries, are all being blown up all over the place, except this far the USA, where the mad king is determined to burn as much as possible.

    It isn't going to get better quickly.

    If we need them, they need big #batteries, #wind turbines, #solar panels, and anything else to hand.

  29. 100+ UK data centres can't get a National Grid connection until 2038. So they're building their own gas plant. Ed Miliband's net zero target remains on the government website. The exhaust plume doesn't read government websites.
    The engineering reality is worse than the headlines suggest.
