Description

Go to https://apexguard.com/partner/InternetEducation/ to get 3 months free! The idea behind an AI data center was simple and fool proof: AI was getting better everyday, millions of people were using it and the more computing power companies gave these models, the more capable they seemed to become. So Silicon Valley came to one very expensive conclusion: If AI is the future, whoever owns the most computers wins. And that one belief was enough to set off one of the largest infrastructure races tech has ever seen. Companies like Google, Meta and Amazon began buying GPUs by the hundreds of thousands, locking down huge plots of land and committing hundreds of billions of dollars to facilities that hadn’t even been built yet. This is the story of why building data centres has gone terribly wrong. Thanks for watching!
