Where did you get that from?
According to Stefan-Boltzmann , power is proportional to the 4th power of temperature, so temp matters very much. Even at 50C, you get 550W/m^2 radiation per side. That leaves a big margin for temp gradient from panel to GPU core. So I assume you numbers must be single sided, and based on a lower temperature?

Even so, that is less than the area of solar panels needed to generate the power. Total mass works out slightly more. The economics of space-based AI servers compared to earthly is dubious, especially as battery storage continues to drop in price.
    But why are some people focussing on claiming some fundamental physics limit in cooling? Aside from the usual /. motive of wanting to sound smart, as far as I can tell they seem to be motivated by an emotional reaction to a person whose politics does not align with theirs. Tribalism can make people blind.

The fact you even relate people on the right in the United States including Trump with Nazis shows just how much of a brainwashed bubble you live in. Seriously expand you consciousness further and take 5 minutes to look into the hate ads ran by an opposing political party.

Exactly.

Maybe it's because you only *think* the planet is buggered

Look at the university of Colorado. They maintain an active database of the status of all the glaciers in the world. One third of them are growing. One third of them are shrinking. the other third are unknown. Nothing's changed. It's just another day on planet Earth. Everybody needs to stop panicking.

You spout a ton of hatred, but why?

Right, but now it is the overarching company name. The studios remain the same brand.

Skydance is the company name, the brands are remaining the same.

It's pure insanity to hate someone so much because they donated money to a person you dislike and one that actually won the popular vote. I understand the hatewashing done by attack ads, news, and places like reddit is strong but look at what you just wrote.

"Change is always painful, particularly if it's a switch from a much-maligned program like Teams."

There FTFY.

"This is an absolute game changer for iOS forensics and a function that I wish we had years ago," a Magnet privacy rapist says in the leaked video

There FTFY.

I just wish they'd hurry up and close down the HTTP access too.

I'm sorry to say, this model could literally walk on water and I'm still not going to use it for anything serious. Gemini is sort of a go-to for 'web search+' type activities for me, but for agentic stuff, Google can f right off.

A while back I thought I'd try Gemini in an agent, so I downloaded Gemini CLI and hooked it up to my Google account. I got started, and then ran into usage limits - fair enough. I leave the CLI running, but completely back off, not touching it for a couple of days. Then I get the email from google "you have violated our terms of service, your account will be permanently blocked ... click here to appeal". Of course they couldn't tell me what I'd done wrong, so I appealed, and never heard anything back from them. I have no idea if my account is okay or not - mainly because Gemini CLI got deleted and replaced with Claude Code and OpenCode.

Google "inc" really need to make themselves a lot easier to deal with, otherwise everything they do will be entirely overshadowed by their corporate crap. To date, I've had no such issues from Anthropic or Deepseek - both of them "just work" and do what they're supposed to without getting in my way.

... and then watch those payouts go from $1/million tokens (or whatever the current measurement is) to $0.000001/million tokens within the next couple of years, if not months.

Mistral is never going to be as big as Anthropic or OpenAI. They lack the sociopaths to do it, they're not in it for dick measuring, and so just won't do it.

I'd also say that they're European, and governed by European laws. They'd be very much held accountable if their agents "went rogue" and hacked the Aussie government (or anyone else). That makes them much more careful about their "guardrails" when they do things - they already are the "slowed down development" that the US companies are supposedly calling for.

I think we'll see Mistral in a few important niches, but they're unlikely to take over from ChatGPT or Claude unless the US companies all implode from their own hubris.
