@kevinolearytv breaks down the brutal reality of the AI race with China and proposes a new rule for data centers moving forward in the U.S.:
“The new rule of engagement should be this, as part of the national solution: if I'm going to bring a data center anywhere, I gotta bring my own power. I gotta spend billions to build power and then give some of it back to the grid so we can stay competitive.
I've been dealing in China since they came into the World Trade Organization back in 2000. They haven't played by the rules, before we were even worried about AI… In the last 18 months, the Chinese, using primarily coal-burning turbines because they don't care about the environment, or [if] they need a permit - the big guy says, ‘put one here,’ and that's how it happens - they've built 400 gigawatts of new power for China, its economy, and its efforts to dominate AI. How many have we built that's new in America? Zero.”
