to run models to create new medicines like anti-cancer meds
They are. They’re using it an almost every field of medicine and science. Theoretical Physicists are loving AI. MIT Loves it. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12232943/

AlteredEgo@lemmy.ml 1 day agoWell 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 and wind 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. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cascade_refrigeration is where it’s at.
You can build a modified kegerator and make it into a chiller 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 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
