From public sources: DeepMind reported cooling energy savings of up to 40%, which works out to about a 15% cut in total energy overhead once other losses are counted. The authors noted that every data center is built differently, so a model tuned for one...
From public sources: Microsoft reported a failure rate underwater of about one-eighth of a matching set of servers on land. The team's leading explanation was the sealed nitrogen atmosphere, which corrodes less than air, and the absence of people bumping...
From public sources: in 2024 a Microsoft executive told DatacenterDynamics the experiment worked but that the company was not building undersea data centers, and would apply what it learned about operations and vibration elsewhere. A successful pilot is...
From public sources: comparing satellite images from 2017 to 2021 with ship-tracking broadcasts, the team found about 75% of industrial fishing vessels and over 25% of transport and energy vessels were missing from public tracking. Not all boats are...
From public sources: Google describes early numbers showing potential for up to 30% fewer stops and 10% lower greenhouse gas emissions at coordinated intersections. It notes the figures are early, averaged, and modelled on a single vehicle type, and that...
