[quote=Anonymous]What benefit do we gain from having these data centers in our area? AI consumes so much energy and demand for AI is growing. Doing a Google search or looking up a product on Amazon now generates a AI summary. The energy costs to generate responses are passed on to local resident as I understand it. It will supposedly account for 25% increased household energy bills in data center areas over the next 5 years. (Not sure how accurate that is.) unfortunately, Google users, for example, can’t turn off the AI queries and responses. [/quote]
