"Building AI infrastructure is the single most important thing we can do to meet surging global demand . . " Interesting. Nobody was prepared to spend billions on renewable energy infrastructure though - which might actually save the planet. But, hey, what do I know.


> Nobody was prepared to spend billions...

I get the sentiment, but actually... billions are being spent on renewables, especially by China.

Here in Australia retail electricity will become unmetered during the peak daylight hours starting next year because we've built out so much solar that wholesale prices are starting to dip into negative territory.


Agreed. However, haven't seen similar investment numbers coming from industry or VC players. Maybe I missed it...


It’s very important that the government allows the AI market to crash, so that important lessons may be learned about resilience.
