      TLDR without the crap :
      China is installing data center under sea to benefit from natural cooling.

        Ahh good, let's put a bunch of electric heaters into the ocean. This sounds like it'll help with the ongoing crisis in ocean temperature rise, and certainly won't have any unforseen consequences.

          US companies have done the same, although only as test dummies and it wouldn‘t surprise me if the same is true here and the vast majority of sever capacity remains above sea level. Chinese tech companies tend to overdramatize things because they know nobody reads up on fact checkers later. This is really just this week‘s „China is 50 years in the future!“ fluff story.

            Ah yes, the sea; as we all know, totally empty and devoid of life. Wcgw

              Locally, yes, it could cause changes in the environment in a very small area. Ocean temperature is a global phenomenon and not affected or caused by active heating elements.

              The rise in temperature is caused by a change in the insulation of the planet, the atmosphere.

              The sun pumps energy (heat) into the earth equivalent to 44 million power plants. Next to that, a data center does not even register.

                Thank you for saving me a click. Undersea data center operation and seawater cooling is not new; Microsoft has been pursuing such efforts for a decade or so now, under the auspices of Project Natick: https://natick.research.microsoft.com/
