I was listening to an NPR radio discussion about the problems areas are having with new massive #DataCenters designed for #AI processing. The issues come down to water for cooling and incredibly amounts of power needed. I had an idea that may have been discussed already but it seemed new to me.

#NiagaraFalls. The #US and #Canada each setup a large area near the Falls to house the data centers. Mandate that this is where all AI will be processed. There is plenty of water. Each country will create a dedicated grid for their area that has its own turbines. The companies located at these areas will pay for the power and water.

This seems like it would be a good #ClimeteSolution. Of course not using AI would be the best option but that ship has sailed.

Problem solved?

More GO train service coming to Hamilton's West Harbour, including trips to Niagara Region
A track upgrade means trains from Niagara Falls and St. Catharines no longer have to back in and out of the station, shaving about 15 minutes off travel time to Toronto, says transportation minister.
