@nataliefratto: Do you think space data centers actually going to work?? Companies like Starcloud, AXIOM, Cowboy Space, Blue Origin and SpaceX are betting on it, and here’s why I’m rooting them on #datacenter #ai #space #technology #startup

Wait can I ask why can’t we have them in Antarctica 🇦🇶

you cant eject heat in a vacuum

Not sure about the cooling? Radiation needs a medium to transfer heat.

1. The heat radiators in the ISS take to 6500sqft of space and it has nowhere near the heat load of even a single cabinet of AI chips 2. Latency, no one ever talks about latency. Yes we're talking only a few milliseconds to ping a signal to low earth orbit and back but hardwired connections are a few microseconds, 100x faster

Interesting :) I did a little napkin calculations and a 100MW data center would need something like 250,000 sqft of radiator surface facing deep space for cooling? Pretty big project if so!

You don’t know what you’re talking about. A vacuum without air is not a good place to cool down

I still dont understand why we cant put them in Antartica and remotely connect

What noise? I have yet to see anyone post a video of the noise.

1st problem not solved, have you calculated area of solar panels needed? No. 2nd Thermodynamics in space does work, but its at a much slower than heat tranfered to water, maybe do a class in thermal Engineering first. 3rd, You still need Permits, you cant just launch your own satellite.

space junk is going to obliterate a radiator large enough to radiate that much heat.

we've had data centres in space since at least 2020 now.. 🤦

Those “challenges” are MASSIVE hurdles with no clear timeline for when or how those challenges would be overcome. They’re simply not feasible right now nor any time soon.

don’t think this will happen, engineering complexity is high, so as cost. data centres are focal points right now, and ai might slow down in future, as chips get better their foot prints shrinks. sending a chip that will be outdated by eoy to space sound economically stupid

Dylan Patel says the delay from manufacturing to using the chips would increase from days to 6-10 months for those sent to space. This is the newest freshest hardware we are talking about! The space data centres won’t be optimal preferable alternative until we solve the hardware shortage problem. Unfortunately, AI and cloud companies would be able to get excess electricity though produced in very inefficient ways and would be ready to consume the water with the excessive cost to the environment, so these shortages would be easier to resolve than the hardware shortage.
