Las Vegas' dystopia-sphere, powered by 150 Nvidia GPUs and drawing up to 28,000,000 watts, is both a testament to the hubris of humanity and an admittedly impressive technical feat | PC Gamer (www.pcgamer.com)

The power usage wouldn't be a problem if the electricity were generated in a green way.

If only the energy sector had a workforce experienced in building offshore structures that could build offshore wind farms. And maybe a workforce that had experience in drilling that could develop geothermal energy.

Of course we also need an energy sector that had a lot of financial resources to put into these kinds of investments.

If only the energy sector had these kinds of resources, a big sphere drawing a lot of electricity wouldn't be a problem.

As an industry insider, can tell you old oil and gas wells are being converted to geothermal where possible. There is lots of innovation in the works!
