I haven't properly thought through the thermal engineering problems here but cooling a data center in the vacuum of space seems like a hard thing to solve.
There are plenty of computers on the ISS and on satellites in space, but nothing on the same scale of compute and density.

The new thing is data centers in the ocean.
