Concrete follows code.
Just came across this, it’s chart of the week for me: we are on track to build more physical workspace for our digital team mates (in data centres) than for our human team mates (in traditional office buildings).
Every #AI query needs a home and every model requires warehouse scale computing.
The #cloud was never really floating- it’s always been anchored in reinforced concrete and steel.
