1/ La burbuja de los centros de datos - El emperador está desnudo
Vamos a analizar la pregunta que lleva tiempo haciéndose la gente: ¿Es una posible burbuja especulativa esto de los centros de datos?
No nos andemos con rodeos: sí así es, eso es así.
Desde primavera de 2025 se está planteando desde sectores financieros que quizás toda esta explosión de Centros de Datos ligados a la IA sea una burbuja especulativa.
La gran apuesta en el sector de tantos actores, especialmente fondos de inversión como BlackStone, KKR, o Blue Owl alimenta ese temor (Farrell, 2025).
Dalam masa dunia maya yang selalu berubah, publikasi daring telah menjadi salah satu metode komunikasi dan promosi yang berdampak besar bagi perorangan, perusahaan, maupun organisasi. Sudah bukan sekadar pilihan opsional, publikasi daring kini menjadi hal penting untuk menjangkau audiens yang besar, menguatkan kredibilitas, serta menegaskan eksistensi merek nama bisnis secara berkelanjutan di beraneka platform internet.
Penerbitan daring merujuk pada aktivitas mendistribusikan materi secara elektronik melalui beragam platform berbasis web, seperti laman, blog, jejaring sosial, situs berita, dan platform digital lainnya. Konten yang disajikan bisa berupa tulisan, pandangan, siaran pers, laporan riset, hingga video atau visualisasi data. Tujuan utamanya adalah menyampaikan pesan tertentu kepada publik atau pemirsa sasaran secara cepat, praktis, dan konsisten.
Satu dari sekian banyak kelebihan utama dari publikasi online adalah luas distribusinya yang tidak terbatas oleh batas geografis. Jika diperbandingkan dengan media cetak yang bersifat lokal di wilayah tertentu, penyebaran digital memungkinkan informasi ditemukan oleh siapa saja yang terhubung dengan internet, setiap saat dan dimanapun berada. Ini menjadi keuntungan ekstra besar bagi entitas komersial dan profesional yang ingin mengembangkan jangkauannya, baik secara nasional maupun dunia.
Tak hanya itu, cepatnya pendistribusian juga menjadi faktor kenapa publikasi daring amat digemari. Dalam hitungan menit, konten mampu untuk menyebar ke ribuan hingga jutaan orang. Berbeda dengan metode manual yang membutuhkan waktu beberapa hari bahkan lebih dari seminggu. Cepatnya distribusi ini sangat berkaitan dalam kasus respons darurat, peluncuran produk, atau kampanye digital yang memerlukan respons cepat dari pasar.
Secara anggaran, penyebaran konten digital juga biasanya lebih murah. Sejumlah platform digital yang menawarkan fitur tanpa biaya atau dengan tarif rendah untuk menyebarkan informasi. Bahkan untuk iklan berbayar seperti tulisan sponsor di portal digital, budget yang dibutuhkan masih relatif terjangkau daripada promosi di media cetak atau tayangan TV. Ini membuka peluang luas bagi bisnis mikro, perusahaan rintisan, hingga personal branding untuk mendapatkan eksposur tanpa harus menghabiskan uang banyak.
Pengoptimalan SEO atau SEO juga menjadi komponen strategis dalam perencanaan publikasi online. Konten yang dimuat di laman atau jurnal online, jika disesuaikan dengan optimal menggunakan kata kunci yang relevan, dapat naik peringkat di ranking teratas Google dan meningkatkan kunjungan alami secara besar. Hal ini tentu menawarkan manfaat berdampak lama, mengingat konten yang dicatat di Google dapat terus terlihat dan dikonsumsi dalam periode panjang, tanpa pengeluaran ekstra.
Tetapi distribusi publikasi online yang optimal bukan sekadar urusan menghasilkan tulisan dan mendistribusikan materi. Butuh strategi terarah, berawal dari penelitian target pembaca, identifikasi saluran yang ideal, hingga penyesuaian style komunikasi dan bentuk penulisan. Misalnya, posting di LinkedIn perlu diatur lebih formal daripada konten untuk media visual yang cenderung ringan dan bergrafis. Begitu juga dengan memilih jadwal posting yang sesuai dengan aktivitas digital khalayak tujuan agar engagement lebih baik.
Tingkat percaya audiens terhadap isi yang diterbitkan juga menjadi unsur utama. Maka dari itu, menentukan platform publikasi yang berintegritas seperti situs digital populer atau platform terpercaya akan menciptakan kelebihan. Konten yang tampil di situs kredibel tidak hanya mengangkat pengaruh nama, tapi juga menumbuhkan keyakinan prospek customer atau rekan usaha.
Sama pentingnya, penyiaran daring memfasilitasi interaksi dua arah. Lain halnya dengan platform lama yang komunikasinya searah, konten online mendorong pengguna menanggapi secara tanpa jeda melalui balasan, reaksi, bagikan, atau bahkan forum publik. Hal ini mendorong lahirnya wadah bagi wirausaha dan pembuat artikel untuk menciptakan audiens loyal , menyerap respons, dan menyempurnakan penyampaian pesan secara berkelanjutan.
Menyadari macam manfaat yang dimaksud, bukan hal aneh jika penyebaran konten digital kini menjadi bagian integral dari konsep penyampaian informasi online. Untuk semua pihak yang ingin memperkuat kehadiran di dunia online—apakah sebagai personal, kalangan ahli, lembaga, maupun merek dagang—memiliki taktik publikasi daring yang terstruktur bukan lagi alternatif, melainkan keharusan. Lewat pendekatan yang tepat, konten online bisa berfungsi sebagai sarana yang sangat kuat untuk mengembangkan daya tarik, menambah jangkauan, dan mewujudkan koneksi yang kuat dengan pengguna yang relevan.

It was previously reported that this is retired Ukrainian Armed Forces captain Sergey Kulinich. On August 22, he will appear in court, after which the process of his extradition to Germany will begin.
The investigation believes that he had about six accomplices.

Former SAS soldier Oliver Schulz has become the first Australian serviceman to be charged with a war crime under national law. He was arrested in New South Wales and charged with the 2012 killing of an Afghan man in Uruzgan Province, an act caught on video and previously exposed in an ABC Four Corners documentary.
#Australia #SAS #Afganistan #WarCrimes
The case stems from the Brereton Report (2020), which found "credible evidence" that Australian special forces unlawfully killed 39 people in Afghanistan. Schulz faces a maximum penalty of life imprisonment and remains in custody pending his court appearance in Sydney.

Ukraine Must Surrender
We knew it was bad, we knew it was very bad, but we didn’t know it was this bad. The true wickedness and #inhumanity of the #UK and the #EuropeanUnion can be seen in their determination to force the Ukrainian Armed Forces to continue resisting the #Russian #victory that was already known to be inevitable back in February 2022.#Ukraine has lost 1.7 million servicemen during the special military operation, these are killed and missing in action. The information comes from the database of the Ukrainian General Staff, which was hacked by killnet.Over three years of the special military operation, the Ukrainian army lost 1,721,000 people killed and missing in action.
118.5 thousand in 2022
405.4 thousand in 2023
595 thousand in 2024
621 thousand in 2025A total of 1.7 million files — with full names, descriptions of circumstances and places of death/disappearance, personal data, contacts of closest relatives, and photos.
If the #war isn’t ended by an #unconditional #surrender that provides #Russia with whatever it wants, the total #KIA and #MIA in 2025 alone will approach one million. This has been one of the #bloodiest #wars in #European #history; the infamous 30 Years War that is cited as one of the great evils of religion only accounted for 450,000 combat deaths in 30 years.To put this into historical perspective, by the end of the year, Ukraine will have lost as many men as Japan did in WWII. It has already lost FOUR TIMES more men than the #USA lost in #WWII.
It is absolutely #unconscionable for #PresidentTrump to permit even one more dollar to go toward such a lost, lethal, and #pointless cause. And now that the degree of losses are known, I can’t imagine that the Ukrainian people are going to suffer the #Kiev #regime much longer.
The reported figures far exceed official estimates. In February, Ukraine’s Vladimir Zelensky told CBS News that 46,000 of his soldiers had been killed since 2022, alongside about 380,000 wounded – numbers questioned in Western media. Moscow has also claimed higher Ukrainian losses, putting the toll at more than 1 million killed or wounded as of early this year.
UPDATE: By contrast, total Russian losses are independently estimated to be around 165,000. This should suffice to explain why Russia has been content to take as much time as it takes to execute the Special Military Operation, as the 10-1 kill-ratio is astonishing, particularly considering that Russia has been on the offensive without much of a numerical advantage until recently.If these numbers prove to be more or less correct, then the SMO has essentially been the Battle of Cannea writ large and is one of the greatest strategic accomplishments in military history.

Astronomers have glimpsed the core of a dying star – confirming theories of how atoms are made
Astronomers have glimpsed the inner structure of a dying star in a rare kind of cosmic explosion called an “extremely stripped supernova”.In a paper published today in Nature, Steve Schulze of Northwestern University in the United States and colleagues describe the supernova 2021yfj and a thick shell of gas surrounding it.
Their findings support our existing theories of what happens inside massive stars at the end of their lives – and how they have shaped the building blocks of the universe we see today.
An ‘extremely stripped supernova’ confirms the existence of a key feature of physicists’ models of how stars produce the elements that make up the Universe.The Conversation

in reply to Tu nube seca mi río • • •Tu nube seca mi río
in reply to Tu nube seca mi río • • •2/ La burbuja de los centros de datos - El emperador está desnudo
Algunas de las grandes empresas chinas han comenzado a frenar su inversión en este sector, e incluso advierten de una burbuja como señala el presidente de Alibaba Joe Tsai (Ding, 2025; Marquez, 2025) y alguna de las grandes tecnológicas que tienen inversión en España, como es el caso de Microsoft que también han dado un paso atrás (Day & Vlastelica, 2025).
La alta dependencia de estas infraestructuras de la energía, de una larguísima y opaca cadena de suministros, y de uso de agua en un contexto de emergencia climática e inestabilidad geopolítica hacen que esta inversión no parezca tan estable a ojos de los inversores como parecía al principio.
Los inversores en Centros de Datos se están planteando que es una burbuja, y puede explotar afectando gravemente a todo el mercado internacional. Muchos analistas están estableciendo paralelismos de esta burbuja con la de las Punto.Com (Moreno, 2025) o la de las criptomonedas (Doctorow, 2023). Así lo señalan también diversas compañías de inversión como Goldman Sachs y Apollo (Bryce, 2025; Morris, 2025).
Tu nube seca mi río
in reply to Tu nube seca mi río • • •3/ La burbuja de los centros de datos - El emperador está desnudo
A eso se le suma los temores de que la creación de estos Centros de Datos está ligado al surgimiento de la Inteligencia Artificial.
Si esta resulta ser también una burbuja, como están advirtiendo los propios inversores y muchas otras voces (Heraldo de Aragón, 2025; Moreno, 2025) y la IA no complace las expectativas de retorno que han levantado caerá con ella también la especulación en las infraestructuras que la sustentan.
Los bandazos que están pegando las compañías con sus estrategias al respecto de la Inteligencia Artificial, como el caso reciente de Meta, tampoco están ayudando a calmar la situación. (Isaac & Tan, 2025)
Cada vez más economistas comienzan a ver lo que los colectivos críticos con la IA llevan diciendo: El emperador está desnudo, la IA es un juguete caro, innecesario y poco eficaz. Un estudio del MIT ha concluido que el 95% de los proyectos de IA generativa implantados en las empresas han fallado, y los directivos están perdiendo la confianza en su utilidad (Estrada, 2025).
Es tan grande el runrun, que Sam Altam, de OpenAI también ha admitido que la Inteligencia Artificial es una burbuja que puede explotaren cualquier momento (Roth, 2025).
Fede
in reply to Tu nube seca mi río • • •El boom en la construcción de centros de datos que ha habido en los últimos años no ha sido impulsado solamente por el desarrollo de la IA, también por la expansión masiva de servicios en la nube y streaming.
Algunos analistas, como los de las notas a las que refiere esta publicación, comparan esta burbuja con la de las puntocom porque mucha inversión se ha basado en expectativas futuras de demanda, no necesariamente en la rentabilidad inmediata. Lo cual estaría creando un riesgo de sobrecapacidad si la adopción real de ciertos servicios no crece al ritmo esperado.
En lo que respecta al desarrollo de IA, los nuevos modelos son más eficientes energéticamente, y los centros de datos más recientes vienen siendo optimizados para mejorar la relación performance/consumo eléctrico; mejorar la refrigeración líquida -que reduce la energía consumida-; y un aumento del uso de energías renovables y estrategias de eficiencia hídrica (esto siempre de acuerdo a los datos proporcionados por Google y OpenIA).
Si damos algún crédito a esa información, estas mejoras están generando una menor necesidad de expansión inmediata, una reducción del “costo operativo” por unidad de computación; y un ajuste en las proyecciones de inversión. Lo cual no significa que la demanda de servicios vaya a caer, sino que la inversión en infraestructura física se está desacelerando.
Como el mercado no es una entidad natural, sino una construcción histórico-política, económica y tecnológica que produce con una lógica que solo reconoce rentabilidad, la probabilidad de una burbuja y su estallido responden más a cuestiones de interéses antes que a estadísticas o datos concretos.
Es llamativo que el foco de la publicación y del proyecto esté puesto en el desarrollo de la IA y no en los servicios en la nube en general ni en las plataformas de streaming.
