    This. Quit wasting the land and other resources on them altogether.

      Genai datacenters are purpose built for those nvidia gpu racks and will likely not be very useful, or at best very inefficient, for regular datacenter usage. The world would be better off with either farmland, housing, natture or even - and I don’t quite say this lightly - parking lots.

      well the problem si that they are build very cheap. Thats also why they use so much water and cause that much noise.

    You get my HPC job running on a single rack and I can show you a very big customer who would pay a LOT for that.
