Comment on AI experts return from China stunned: The U.S. grid is so weak, the race may already be over
Buffalox@lemmy.world 15 hours agoOK so Alabama push the bill to consumers for expanding power to data centers in that situation. Meaning the American AI industry has absolutely nothing to be envious about China for in that situation. Which is what the article claims.

It just seems to me that we should require data centers to pay for new capacity on the grid using 100% renewable energy.
That would keep regular citizens for having to pay for the grid expansion, would help clean up the grid and move it forward, and all that investment in wind and solar would help bring the cost of renewables down. It would be a win for everyone.

I agree, but Trumps MAGA America does not, MAGA wants to fuck you over every way they can, until the rich have it all.
The likes of Trump Republicans will not be happy until average Americans are reduced to slaves to the rich.
I have stocked up on so much popcorn you probably wouldn’t believe it, to see if there will be another presidential election.
It’s insane that USA used to be the envy and a role model for much of the world, now it’s become the opposite, a warning of what not to become.
