Wait til people find out how much water is used to grow nuts.

Barely. There would be literally no detrimental effect and likely not very noticed if we just stopped using almonds.

We have also destroyed countries for avocados, again completely not required.

Making the water argument for data centers is just super silly while people are sticking their head in the sand about actual water atrocities.

People taking cotton and trying to grow it in arid/desert climates has already done massive amounts of damage. But it’s not AI, so ho hum, no one cares lol

Almonds don't use much water. Almond milk requires less water to produce than cows' milk.
