نشرت الصين 2000 خادم تحت مياه المحيط لتلبية احتياجات الطاقة المتزايدة لتقنيات الذكاء الاصطناعي.
يهدف المشروع إلى خفض فعالية استخدام الطاقة في مراكز البيانات من خلال الاستفادة من التبريد تحت الماء. ويمثل هذا النهج تحولاً نوعياً في ظل دفع متطلبات الذكاء الاصطناعي بالبنية التحتية نحو بيئات جديدة.
تفاعل مستخدمو منصة X مع مشروع مراكز بيانات الذكاء الاصطناعي تحت الماء في الصين بردود فعل إيجابية ومحايدة في الغالب، حيث سلطوا الضوء على كفاءته في استخدام الطاقة، والاستفادة من طاقة الرياح البحرية، والتبريد الطبيعي بمياه البحر. وأكدت النقاشات على سرعة إنجاز المشروع ومميزاته مقارنة بالمرافق المقامة على اليابسة. كما أشار بعض المستخدمين إلى مقارنات مع بطء تطوير البنية التحتية في أماكن أخرى، بينما أبدى آخرون آراء فكاهية أو متشككة حول هذا المفهوم.
