Show Notes
Sam Altman, OpenAIs CEO, dismisses AI data center water consumption concerns, citing their shift from evaporative cooling. He acknowledges energy demands but emphasizes the need for cleaner energy sources. Despite growing data center power and water demands, OpenAI prioritizes closed-loop cooling systems. Big tech firms invest in solar and battery projects, but data center water needs may surge by 2050 due to fossil fuel grid reliance.
