In July, Trinidad and Tobago signed memorandums of understanding with two American companies to build large AI data centres, the first deals of their kind in the Caribbean. The government says the projects could bring more than US$5 billion in investment and over 5,000 jobs. Then more than 23,000 people signed a petition asking the government to stop. The two proposed facilities would need 450 megawatts of power in a country where record peak demand is about 1,456 megawatts, and where many households still get piped water once a week. --- Trinidad | Tobago | AI Data Centres | Caribbean | US News | Technology | Firstpost #trinidad #tobago #ai #artificialintelligence #caribbean #datacentres #firstpost Firstpost is an Indian news and media website.
