By the time they need to replace them they better have made enough money already. (includes investments for building the datacenter, people running it and rising energy costs)

The people getting fired over AI are not the ones that are going to be paying to use it so who is paying?

For example; "Industrial factory robots typically work for 10 to 15 years in a standard production environment, though many continue functioning for 20 years or more"

So I hope they calculated in the replacing of half their factory every ~5 years with new GPU's. 👍

There absolutely could be more concealed problems that will reveal themselves! The article was just about electrical equipment.

Somehow I think the AI firms will have the bargaining power to get themselves support contracts though. In particular Google makes their own hardware.
