Omen AI Raises $31M to Watch the Water Inside AI Data Centres

My take: Infrastructure news usually puts me to sleep, but the cost of the problem here woke me right up. AI data centers use liquid cooling to keep chips from burning out. More water cools better but also lets bacteria grow, and when bacteria takes over, you have to shut down whole racks and flush the system, at a cost of millions in downtime. Omen AI built a tiny spectrometer, basically a blood test for your server coolant, to catch the problem before it explodes. It reminds me of the building super who checks the water tank before the whole floor gets food poisoning 😅. They just raised $31M to scale this up. My take: building the digital future means solving the plumbing problems first.
