Hopefully, AI companies don't use Nuclear power, or build Nuclear plants close to the ocean where a huge tsunami wave can cause problems....

Hopefully not, but I can see their only option unless they go someplace full of solar and wind.

I feel AI may cause generating electricity with coal to be even more popular since AI uses a lot of electricity, so some AI companies may also generate their electricity from coal to prevent running of electricity from Solar and Wind.

Most tend to move away from Coal, I don't see them trying to power something as powerful as AI with such a old power source.

I read a news article that China and India still use a lot of coal for generating electricity. Unfortunately, coal can cause breathing problems for animals and humans.

That would explain why their air quality is so bad, coal isn't healthy to use.

Unfortunately, I feel coal will still be used a lot powering AI and other tech tasks like charging electric cars until Solar and Wind becomes more popular and affordable.
