Carnot Who?
Congratulations, you've just reinvented the steam engine with extra steps and a power bill that would make Nikola Tesla weep. This beautiful circular logic is basically: use electricity to make heat to make electricity to use electricity. It's like eating a sandwich to gain the energy to make a sandwich to eat a sandwich. The Carnot cycle is rolling in its theoretical grave right now. You know, that pesky thermodynamic principle that says you can't get more energy out than you put in? Yeah, turns out the universe has rules about perpetual motion machines, and "but it looks cool underwater" isn't a valid exemption. Fun fact: Data centers already dump so much waste heat that some actually DO use it for district heating. But they're smart enough to skip the "convert back to electricity" step because, you know, physics.
