中国は人工知能（AI）の急増する電力需要に対応するため、2,000台のサーバーを海底に設置した。

このプロジェクトは、海中冷却を活用することでデータセンターの電力使用効率（PUE）を改善することを目的としている。AI需要によってインフラが新たな環境へ拡大する中、この取り組みは一つの転換点となる。

人々が言っていること

X（旧Twitter）では、中国の海底AIデータセンターに対し、エネルギー効率の高さ、洋上風力の活用、自然の海水を利用した冷却といった点から、概ね肯定的または中立的な反応が寄せられている。議論では、プロジェクトの迅速な完了や、陸上施設に対する優位性が強調されている。一部では他国におけるインフラ整備の遅さとの比較が見られるほか、このコンセプトに対して軽妙な反応や懐疑的な意見を寄せるユーザーもいる。
