Yes, AI datacenters do actually use evaporative cooling. The water isn't destroyed obviously but it is made unavailable for other purposes (like keeping people, animals, and plants alive) and depletes water tables that can't be easily replenished
I hope you are also inveighing against industrial agricultural use of water, which uses orders of mangitude more water in significantly more wasteful ways.

Shouts "AI wastes water!" with food in my mouth while eating an almond butter sandwich with a pizza lined up next.
I need food to live I do not need AI to live
