Q: Helium & AI Capacity?

I had a thought, which doesn’t seem to a part of the current news cycle/conversation, but is it a valid one? Helium's used in semiconductor manufacturing. Qatar (reliant of the Strait of Hormuz) is a major global helium producer. Semiconductor production = entire backbone of AI data centres. Could chip supply falter as a byproduct, and how might this affect AI capacity/development in the months to come? submitted by /u/nikhewitt [link] [comments]
