AI capex is so big that it's affecting economic statistics

I just wish we forced every new data center to be built with renewables or something. The marginal cost over a conventional data center can’t be that big compared to the total cost, and these companies can afford it. Maybe it can help advance the next generation of small modular nuclear reactors or something.

Why renewables? These guys don't have an energy problem. The states have made sure give them energy credits and other assurances on that. The problem they do have though is siphoning the water from everyone around them.

Microsoft actually has a design for mini datacenters that stay cool in the ocean and collect tidal energy. But it's way more fun to have states trying to court you into building datacenters cause it'll bring some jobs.
