    Sub-Sea AI Data Center is Operating in China

    China has launched what it claims is the world's first operational undersea data center near Shanghai, powered by a nearby wind farm. This $226 million facility houses approximately 2,000 servers, including GPU clusters, to develop local large language models and process big data. The underwater location utilizes the cool ocean temperatures for server cooling, aiming to reduce energy consumption compared to traditional land-based data centers, though long-term durability concerns remain.
