印度AI夢的乾渴代價：巨型資料中心吸乾水源 村民陷缺水困境
印度競逐AI霸權，全國大舉興建資料中心，卻引爆周邊社區嚴重水資源危機。本文深入探討AI基礎設施背後的環境代價，以及科技巨頭面臨的永續發展挑戰。
印度正全力衝刺，要在全球AI競賽中獨占鰲頭，然而這場科技榮景，正讓部分農村付出乾渴的代價。一座座嶄新的資料中心拔地而起，周邊村莊的水井卻日益乾涸，迫使居民為了生存只能往地底深處尋水。
全球AI競賽 印度成新戰場
根據日經亞洲在2025年12月26日的報導，隨著全球人工智慧發展突飛猛進，印度正迅速崛起，成為舉足輕重的樞紐。全國各地掀起資料中心的建設熱潮，旨在為AI的龐大運算需求提供基礎設施支持。
巨獸的渴望：冷卻AI的龐大水耗
然而，基礎設施的擴張並非沒有代價。這些被稱為「AI大腦」的資料中心，為了冷卻數以萬計的伺服器，需要消耗驚人的水量。報導中以印度北方邦（Uttar Pradesh）的Yotta資料中心為例，揭示了AI基礎建設光鮮亮麗的背後，正引發日益嚴峻的水資源短缺問題。
被犧牲的社區
對於鄰近社區而言，這是一場生存危機。過去賴以維生的水源逐漸枯竭，村民被迫挖掘更深的井，顯示出科技發展與在地民生之間的劇烈衝突。這也突顯出一個尖銳問題：AI的進步，是否建立在犧牲弱勢群體的基礎之上？
