Somebody do the math on when we will reliably start running out of Grid Power. Than only this "AI builout" will slow down. Manufactiring generators is boring, and very less invested than manufacturing AI servers.

I wish I saw more people realizing the build out promising being made by the big AI are physically impossible

not only is it impossible to build that much power generation on those timelines

it's also not possible to build enough GPUs to fill a purported tripling of US datacenter capacity

what's the ROI on giant empty warehouses full of empty server racks and no electricity?

That's why its increasingly more important to find answers how to build these models that work sustainably. The approach of training with HUGE amount of data requiring HUGE infra seems to have blinded the hype-bros that they are not planning to innovate to do it in a small-scale.

Also the transformers. (The big magnetic ones for voltage convetion)

At least if the robots in disguise turned up, we'd answer the AGI question

Why do you think the build out will stop instead of electricity prices soaring?

They can afford to pay more.
