Left Begins to Talk Down More Energy for AI Data Centers

|
For some time, we've brought you news of the coming expansion of new data centers due to the rapid (explosive) spread of AI or artificial intelligence. Every time you type a query into ChatGPT or another AI engine, a process runs on a computer in a data center somewhere. That computer uses electricity. The electricity comes from somewhere --- most of the time from natural gas being burned in a power plant. More AI queries equals more computers (and data centers) needing more energy. Just two days ago, we told you that most of the big pipeline companies in the country, including Williams, Energy Transfer, Kinder Morgan, Enbridge, and TC Energy, are telling investors of this coming expansion as an opportunity (see Big Midstream Companies Eye Data Center/AI Market for New Pipes). Solar and wind are NOT up to the task of supplying extra electricity for data centers and AI. Enter the radical left to pee all over the concept that we need more data centers because their favored form of energy isn't up to the task.
