Or you know, just have tpus with liquid cooling in huge racks, with optical cables or whatever. We can put a shitton of them into a warehouse sized space, and we have basically infinite energy to power and cool it, with physical connection to the internet for ultra fast speeds!

(Sorry, the snark is not directed at you)

The problem is that building the physical DCs is a cost problem not just in terms of energy availability (it’s not infinite) but also politics and legal regulations. Ignoring that is why it makes the space idea seem silly but it’s a real one
