google search results are still kind of useful especially for non-english language queries, anyone knows a good alternative?
searxng also doesn’t really seem to work these days…

There’s probably going to be a large data center or 10 for sale in a few years 🤞🏻
“Just pickup an old data centre on the cheap and slap Linux on it”
The next step in selfhosting.
And all of them will be borderline useless for actual compute
How so? Is the hardware that special? One computer is much like the next you just have to be creative in repurposing them. Linux runs on millions of devices that a great deal of the population would consider highly obsolete. Just an example, I’m not saying that that’s the actual answer to this question. It might be, I’m just kind of completely ignorant as to what kind of hardware these companies are installing… It sounds like a lot of memory and a lot of GPU power.
Sociologically, economically and environmentally, these data centers aren’t going to be feasible. Our planet can not sustain them. You can build a nuclear energy site in every state, you will have fails and net losses, you will have nuclear, biological and chemical contamination along the way amd you will destroy lives trying to make a form of automation better.
That is what the observation I’ve had is. Is unless we put these things near propane sources or have them generating their own c02 as a coolant or having them do anything else but use water based energy even nuclear rods being soaked for steam based energy isn’t going to save the data centers it will only make things worse.
Also nuclear power plants are just massive targets for enemies. Right now it’s airforce bases and potential silos, you add nuclear power plants into the mix and have those in major civilian areas that’s now something an enemy can leverage. Bet you all never thought of that one.
I think we will see the effort of Ai die out and it will be the world coming back to its senses and it’ll be one for the history books.
The future will be like, we gave up artificial intelligence because our planet would get fucked badly.
It’s not meant for this planet and trying to make it work out is a fatal, futile, worthless endeavor.
Well they will probably be massively over capacity. But then you could run the for half a day during sunlight hours and just use solar. Solar PM and wind kite power basically gives us near infinite super cheap energy at certain times, so you could still make use of those compute centers. Turn them off during the night, modernize the cooling and noise dampening, add some solar and you can use the compute to run models to create new medicines like anti-cancer meds or protein folding. Unlikely that’s going to happen but that is what a sane civilization would do with all that compute.
You’re not going to be able to remove the amount of heat they use with wind or evaporative methods, you need refrigerants. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cascade_refrigeration is where it’s at.
You can build a modified kegerator and make it into a chiller https://future4200.com/t/chiller-hack-diy/220. Chillers are easy to make and if you look around they’re wildly abundant.
The thing is, is the amount of refrigerant it would take and what it would take to keep it going effectively would mean down time and because they’re greedy fucking assholes they don’t want down time because that means money lost. So building them near natural gas and propane sources might be the only way to make it worth it.
The ultimate issue is the footprint they would need to build the facility needed to run it and recapture and reuse the propane.
Treatments in Oncology AI is used in what is called CyberKnife® treatment in oncology. Moreover, a group of ML algorithms have been recently successfully trained to rank clinically relevant cancer drugs based on the drugs’ predicted efficacy in reducing cancer cell growth. One of the successful applications of AI in Oncology is the implication of AI with robotics for radiotherapy.63 Moreover, AI in Oncology provides a promising application in the area of cancer imaging.7 However, AI algorithms seem to be promising in solving problems and overcoming obstacles that face discovering and designing new anticancer drugs.8

They are. They’re using it an almost every field of medicine and science. Theoretical Physicists are loving AI.
