#China Dives in on the World’s First Wind-Powered #Undersea #DataCenter
Traditional #datacenters devote up to 50% of their energy consumption to air conditioning. #Underwater design reduces cooling energy demand to less than 10%. More than 95% of facility's #electricity comes from #offshorewind turbines in East China Sea. The project reduces land usage by more than 90% and eliminates the need for fresh water.

A reminder that generative AI is not only gobbling jobs, fouling up apps and filling the Internet with slop but proving spectacularly successful in other roles such as engineering design:
AI shapes autonomous underwater “gliders”
An AI pipeline developed by CSAIL researchers enables unique hydrodynamic designs for bodyboard-sized vehicles that glide underwater and could help scientists gather marine data.
