Massive data needs massive bandwidth. Scraping web-pages across the entire internet requires sending millions of requests to all known servers. Some AI companies go as far as to ''repeatedly'' send requests for the same content (or several revisions of the same content) as frequent bursts in short intervals, which is indistinguishable from [[wikipedia:Denial-of-service_attack|distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks]]. | Massive data needs massive bandwidth.

Many AI companies have pre-ordered massive amounts of computer components. So much that it doesn't even fit in their current data-centers. This is done in anticipation for ''more'' data-centers being built.{{Citation needed}} This has caused such components to become scarce, and prices to spike. The most notable being the [[wikipedia:2024–present_global_memory_supply_shortage|increase in RAM prices]]. | |||
