Look at how many layers of insulation are needed for the JWST to have a hot and cold side! Again, this is not particularly simple stuff. The JWST operates at 2kw max. That's not enough for a single H200. AI datacenters in space are a non-starter. Anyone arguing otherwise doesn't understand basic thermodynamics. | ||

The goal of JWST is not to consume as much power as possible, and perform useful computations with it. A system not optimized for metric B but for metric A scores bad for metric B... great observation. | ||
