You drill a shallower hole.

At some point you strike surface water table that is going to be the approximate average temperature and lower than the surface.

Use adsorption coolers 80C is plenty hot enough for LI/Br or NH3 / Carbon coolers or use a binary organic cycle using geothermal heat and run a turboexpander with the organic Rankin cycle driving a heat pump compressor directly from the turboexpanders shaft output.
