The Stratos artificial intelligence datacenter footprint will cover more than 40,000 acres (62 sq miles) over three sites in Box Elder county in north-western Utah. The facility will require about 9GW of power, which is more than the entire state of Utah currently consumes, and suck up a significant amount of water in an area that has been hit by severe drought in recent years.
If I were justifying my account name, I’d suppose, for the purpose of future appearing interesting, this might be a coverup.
Such a structure is useful for many things, and while a DC doesn’t have to be that big, a factory producing real things on scale or mass housing or a prepared company town all benefit from being in one place.
So perhaps it’s being built as a DC, but in fact is going to be like a drone factory, or something equally dystopian-futuristic.
Or a humongous supercomputer, whatever.
I’m starting to think along plot lines of science fiction and space operas I’ve seen and read before, they were saying it’s harmful for my development, I didn’t believe them.
Another option - it’s, yes, a scheme and it won’t get built. Just pump and dump.
