Behind every large language model lies a network of data centers consuming extraordinary quantities of energy and water, reshaping land use, straining power grids, and triggering geopolitical contests over who controls digital infrastructure. This talk examines the collision between AI's insatiable infrastructure demands and the legal, environmental, and sovereignty frameworks struggling to keep pace \u2014 from data localization battles and sovereign cloud initiatives to NIMBY conflicts and the hard limits imposed by water scarcity and grid capacity. The question is no longer whether AI will transform society, but whether the physical world can sustain the transformation.<\/div>\n<div id=\"x_appendonsend\"><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Professor\u00a0<span class=\"markakb4qwaja\" data-markjs=\"true\" data-ogac=\"\" data-ogab=\"\" data-ogsc=\"\" data-ogsb=\"\">Dov<\/span>\u00a0Greenbaum\u00a0is director of the Zvi Meitar Institute for Legal Implications of Emerging Technologies at Reichman University. \u00a0<span class=\"markakb4qwaja\" data-markjs=\"true\" data-ogac=\"\" data-ogab=\"\" data-ogsc=\"\" data-ogsb=\"\">Dov<\/span>\u00a0teaches law at the Harry Radzyner Law School at Reichman University.
