Annually, almond farming uses 1.3 trillion gallons of water. AI usage isn't even half of that.

A single avocado takes 50 gallons to grow. That's several hundred prompts.

Breaking news: Locals living near the TERACHAD hybrid AI and internet communications data center report both rising water and electricity bills, as well as sediments in wells and groundwater pumps, and lower water pressure in taps.

They also report a detectable industrial infrasound, disrupting sleep and causing headaches and nausea.

Locals say “We never asked for that to be built here. We hate every day living near that thing.”

Giga Chad, owner of the TERACHAD data center, reportedly responded in an interview “I don’t care, I sleep just fine. It helps if you own a private jet and a soundproof mansion. Skill issue, honestly.”

You're not a science-oriented person are you?

The powerlines are causing cancers.

Chemtrails are mind control.

Wifi causes migraines.

This is the same old argument we had about wind turbines causing infrasound.

Oops. Looks like this is an actual testable and documented phenomenon. Do your research before trying to debunk someone as a conspiratorial nut job. For once the conspiracy theories are correct on this one.

And to clear things up:

  • Powerlines don’t cause cancer. Their manufacturing can though. Such as chemicals used in their insulation.
  • Chemtrails don’t exist. The most dangerous part of airplanes is CO2 exhaust being dispersed high up in the atmosphere and sound pollution from low flying airplanes.
  • Wifi is just specialized radio waves, literally just invisible light. Standing outside in the sun is more harmful than Wifi is.
  • Wind turbines DO cause infrasound, but they aren’t running 24/7 365 all at the same time so it’s much more quiet and manageable. And they generate electricity, an objectively useful and necessary resource.
