AZ247.cz wrote that the government coalition attributed their defeat in the Senate elections not to a decline in approval ratings after a year of governance, but to Ukrainian attacks on Russian data centers, which it claimed prevented voters from St. Petersburg from participating. https://t.co/cy0CluJ6sQ #politika #volby #Rusko (translated)
NIC NEVIM stated that the market is beginning to sober up from expectations related to the construction of data centers and the purchase of expensive chips and memory. According to him, the demand for capital is extraordinarily high, while the available money is running out. At OpenAI, he mentioned annualized revenues of $50 billion, but also stated that the company is still losing money due to high model training costs. He believes that the growth in revenues at this stage does not indicate long-term profitability. According to him, companies and individuals are now experimenting with AI and spending on tokens, but often do not yet see corresponding economic returns. If this does not change quickly, he believes it will be difficult to justify further extensive investments in infrastructure. He added that the costs must eventually be paid by someone, and end consumers do not currently have enough money for that. #ekonomika #uměláinteligence #datacentra (translated)
After the Ukrainian attacks on Russian data centers, automated operations in the online space have decreased, but experts question the claim that this affected the activities of pro-Russian accounts on social networks, and they emphasize the need for accurate data and verification of the situation. #Ukrajina #Yandex #dezinformace (translated)
The arrival of data centers in American villages is causing growing resistance among residents, driven by concerns about the impact on the environment, job loss, and the influence of Big Tech on their communities, leading to a new and widely shared NIMBY sentiment that is becoming an important theme in the upcoming midterms. #datacentra #BigTech #nimbyism (translated)
The Ukrainian bombings on the data centers of the Russian multimedia company Yandex have virtually paralyzed the company's important internet services, which are essential for the daily lives of many Russians, thereby plunging Russia into a digital isolation. #Yandex #Oekraïne #RussischInternet (translated)
Member of the European Parliament Zdechovský was confused by a suspicious graph that claimed Russian data centers had been attacked and activity around the AfD on social networks had sharply dropped, while an analysis by the German website RohText questioned its validity due to a lack of metadata and sources. #Rusko #Dezinformace #AfD (translated)
Tomáš Zdechovský wrote that if the information is confirmed, Russian data centers were hit and activity around the AfD on social media sharply declined. He described the contrast between speeches about German patriots and the drop in connectivity from Russia as telling. https://t.co/ipzwjqvyYT #Rusko #AfD #datacentra (translated)
Sváťa Barek stated that Twitter has been significantly quieter for the last two days. After the attack on Russian data centers, there was a sudden decrease in pro-Russian supporters and anonymous accounts supporting Trump. He added that he was curious whether the measurements would confirm the extent of the change as it had seemed to him so far. #politika (translated)
Tomáš Zdechovský wrote that after the intervention of the Russian data center, there was talk of a sharp decline in bot activity. If the decrease in fake accounts supporting people labeled as "flastenci" were also confirmed, he would consider it significant. He questioned whether it is compatible to declare allegiance to Czech sovereignty while simultaneously drawing technical support from Moscow. He added that the Czech debate should be led by real people and that, in his opinion, Kremlin troll farms would not be missed by anyone. #českápolitika #dezinformace #sociálnímédia (translated)
Tomáš Zdechovský wrote that if the information about the intervention of Russian data centers is confirmed, it would be telling that the activity around the AfD on social networks sharply declined. He added that discussions about German patriots, in his opinion, ceased after the connection from Russia was disrupted. https://t.co/fxxoanGbWA #Rusko #AfD #Datacentra (translated)
Roman M wrote that Zelensky stated in connection with the attack on the Yandex data center that they would start responding to attacks against "our data centers" in a mirrored manner, but did not provide further details. Regarding Pryluky, Zelensky reportedly said that the retaliation would not be directed at children and that adults would soon receive individual responses. #Zelenskyj #Yandex #DataCentra (translated)
Írán výrazně rozšířil portfolio cílů. Nově i na lokální datacentra technologických gigantů. Schopnost mezinárodního práva vynutit ochranu civilních objekttů je velmi slabá, a tak Teherán - stejně jako Washington - používá značně průhledné argumenty. https://t.co/ISw1qwFSif #Írán #datacentra #mezinárodníprávo #IR #US

Dit is toch complete waanzin? NOS Journaal opent met: “Burgers, bespaar water! Van 120 naar 100 liter per dag alsjeblieft.” Terwijl één datacentrum 10 tot 20 miljoen liter water per dag verbruikt. En Nederland heeft er 200. Laat dat even bezinken. Wij moeten onze douche korter zetten en de kraan dichtdraaien, maar Big Tech mag onbeperkt water verkwisten voor hun AI, Netflix en cloudservers. Dit heeft niks met echt watertekort te maken. Dit is klimaatidioterie en hypocrisie van de bovenste plank. De burger is weer de pineut, terwijl de echte slurpers gewoon door mogen gaan. Wie gelooft deze onzin nog? #Waterhypocrisie #Klimaatidioterie #Datacentra #GenoegIsGenoeg #Waterhypocrisie #Klimaat #BigTech
New York zavedl moratorium na výstavbu velkých datacenter s výkonem nad 50 megawattů, aby vyřešil obavy týkající se nákladů na energie a dopadů na životní prostředí, přičemž guvernérka Kathy Hochulová plánuje i zrušení výjimky z prodejní daně pro tato zařízení. #datacentra #životníprostředí #NYMoratorium
Datacentra největších tech firem, jako jsou Microsoft, Google a Amazon, produkují emise uhlíku odpovídající zhruba třetině celkových emisí Francie, přičemž tyto společnosti přiznávají výrazný nárůst svých emisí v souvislosti s boomem poptávky po cloudových službách a umělé inteligenci, zatímco stále slibují dosažení nulových emisí v budoucnu. #Emise #Udržitelnost #UměláInteligence
Ceny notebooků, herních konzolí a chytrých telefonů vzrostly kvůli výraznému zdražení pracovních pamětí, které jsou hromadně vykupovány pro AI datacentra, což vede k omezené nabídce pro běžné spotřebitelé a tím pádem k nižší kvalitě zařízení za stejné ceny. #AI #werkgeheugen #prijsstijging
AI Plan 2040 v kostce Navrhuje: - zpomalit závod USA a Číny ve vývoji nejvýkonnější AI - globálně evidovat čipy a kontrolovat velká datacentra - zveřejňovat výsledky AI výzkumu, ale chránit váhy modelů - povolit další škálování jen po doložení bezpečnosti - kolem roku 2040 #AIPlan2040 #bezpečnostAI #technologickývývoj #US #CN
Klimaatactivist Erin Brockovich, beroemd om haar strijd tegen milieuv contamination door Pacific Gas and Electric Company, richt nu haar pijlen op de ondoorzichtige ontwikkeling van AI-datacentra in de VS, die enorme hoeveelheden water en energie verbruiken terwijl ze zonder publieke consultaties worden opgericht. #ErinBrockovich #AI #milieuactivisme
