It’s not, I read the code. It’s not merely asking the LLM for recommendations, it’s using embeddings to compute scores based on similarities.
It’s a lot closer to a more traditional natural language processing than to how my dad would use GPT to discuss philosophy.

yeah, I think the whole “water” argument really dilutes the case against data centers.
On a serious note, the argument works for areas that already struggle to supply enough water for consumers. Otherwise, we should be focusing more on the power stress to the grid, and the domino effect on supply chain of hardware cost increases that it’s happening across many industries. It started with GPUs, now it’s CPU, storage, networking equipment, and other components.
If these prices are too high for a couple of years, we’ll start seeing generalized price increases as companies need to pass along the costs to consumers.
