As AI chips consume more power (up to 1,200 watts for Nvidia’s newest GPUs) liquid cooling has become the norm. But the most experimental solution is two-phase immersion cooling, where entire servers are submerged in specialized fluids that boil at 43 degrees Celsius. Companies like Chemours have developed proprietary dielectric fluids that absorb heat through phase change without increasing temperature, offering far greater cooling efficiency than static liquids while eliminating energy-intensive chillers. China has deployed underwater data centers (literally in the ocean) using similar principles, saving 122 million kilowatt hours annually. However, the specialized fluids remain expensive and prone to evaporation. With chips projected to reach 5,000 watts within two years, liquid cooling has become essential for AI’s future.

I wonder if they can use the heat and cold difference of the ocean to make electricity like a thermal electric generator
Seems like a very involved way to film a new series of Drain The Oceans
That’s cool! I never get to see videos about AI hardware, I only see videos about AI software. Thanks for that!
How to fry 8 000 000 000+ people at same time:
Ah yes give the millionair tech bros more ways to take ALL the RAM CPUS AND GPUS
Why am I not surprised its China putting ai farm in the ocean.
Guys, get the wetsuits, WEN NEED TO GET BACK OUR RAM!
Global warming? Yeah, sure! ...... Warming the ocean. That's global warming..... Yeah, sure......
Solution is making it more efficient
"Energy crisis"....
Welcome to dystopian hell
Cities/counties ...make the data centers go solar!!! 🌞☀️
can't wait for the next carrington event. i just hope we are fully digital by then
You would think if the liquid boils at such a low temperature it would create a negative void coefficient and stop dissipating heat as well.
Use it for home heating, creating electricity etc. place individual ones heat exhaust area directly to homes, offices, hospitals etc.
AI: Requires it’s own powerplant and a whole river for cooling. Human: Runs on 3 meals a day and 2 liters of water. Can be cooled with icecream.
AI data centers in space
Elon Musk had the best idea… Artificial intelligence data centers in space….
Let's raid these data centers. I'm sick of AI.
