This is authentic? :)


Such a similar name to Gavin Belson from Silicon Valley TV show. Coincidence?

Its not the same kind of infrastructure. We have had hosted cloud servers for decades now, but these datacenters are purpose-built to run AI, with millions of graphics cards.
They can use more power than a city, and they use enormous amounts of water. And they seem to be loud. There has been news about people in their houses getting noise pullution around the clock, sometimes a low vibration humming noise which goes through the walls and prevents them from sleeping properly.
I dont think there is a single advantage for people living near a datacenter. Noise and increased power bills.
