Global data center spending is set to reach $31.6 trillion through 2050 to meet the world’s growing appetite for AI, an investment boom with no precedent in history, according PricewaterhouseCoopers https://t.co/PuhTZEi51m

Letitia James finally agreed to the one debate that state law requires her to show up for. But this isn't just about one debate in one city. New Yorkers in Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, Utica, Albany, and Binghamton deserve to hear directly from both candidates too — not just Manhattan and the NYC press corps.

I've challenged Letitia James to debate me across the state. New York is more than one city, and this race should reflect that.

This is a better way to visualize Columbus’ voyages than the traditional way (that shows him traveling through a modern map)..

It looks a lot crazier and more daring when you see it as a trip into the unknown.

The AI boom is creating a blue-collar jobs boom.

Lowe’s, Nvidia and more than 75 partners are launching a new effort to train and certify 1 MILLION skilled workers by 2035.

“These are not low-paying jobs, these are high-demand jobs.”

A Pennsylvania data center is offering $10,000 checks to residents as part of its benefits package for the community

Wake me up when AI can write like John Steinbeck to Marilyn Monroe 😂

I’ve never posted on X.

Last year I was at Department of Energy with an unusual view into what’s happening across AI, energy, and infrastructure. The old systems can’t handle what’s coming.

There’s just an insane amount we need to build in the physical world, and the opportunity and urgency are greater than ever.

Every able person should be contributing to the effort, and I’ve gotten back into the arena to do my part. More to come soon.

BREAKING: Nvidia declares physical AI could become “10x larger than digital AI” with Jensen Huang predicting every industrial company will become a robotics company.

[litquidity @litcapital]

This is unreal. New Yorkers don’t deserve to have their lives taken away by senseless actions caused by deranged people or homeless who display erratic behavior

It’s incredibly common to see crazy shit happening that citizens just brush off as “no big deal, this is classic NY stuff” on the streets, subway, and other public places

This is not normal and it should be policed harder to make the millions of law-abiding citizens feel safe and secure in their own city

[Geiger Capital @Geiger_Capital]

Feminists love to talk about the "patriarchy" and how White men want them to live in Handmaid's Tale, and then immediately pander to the most patriarchal and restrictive system on earth.

Fascinating chart from @thebrucemuseum

For all the fear of “human devastation” mass extinction is part of History.

Of course we can do better but this is the best epoch in History for animals to be alive.

Nashville is renaming the airport after Dolly Parton. This is awesome.

If you’re participating in the anti datacenter moral panic you are either

- a literal Chinese bot
- a useful idiot for China

[Sam Lyman @SamLyman33]

Understand that the anti-data center movement is, at its core, a deindustrialization movement. So of course China is pushing it.

The US is manufacturing, at scale, the most valuable resource in the modern economy: artificial intelligence. But already, the NIMBY/anti-AI coalition wants to offshore the means of production.

How did that work out for us when we moved the manufacturing of steel, electronics, and other critical industries to East Asia?

Well, it worked out great for China, but decimated America's Heartland.

Now notice the overlap between the regions hit hardest by the China Shock (chart I) in the 2000s vs. the areas where the data center buildout is currently strongest (chart II).

This is a great American comeback story, the hour of the Rust Belt's industrial renaissance. For the first time in decades, we have a chance to reclaim industrial supremacy in the very sector that will determine the future of the global economy.

These are the stakes, and our enemy understands them better than most members of Congress.

[AG @AGHamilton29]

X has now confirmed a Chinese bot farm of 200K fake accounts intentionally trying to manipulate public opinion against data centers.

People might want to consider how common this has become and how it is manipulating multiple policy discussions on social media.

I'm sorry we never got a chance to meet, but getting this note from Dolly really had a an impact on me. She definitely didn't have to take the time to do it. Even for a kid who mostly listened to rap music, she was an icon. A superstar in every sense. Rest easy Dolly. And thank you for the kind words.

[nic carter @nic_carter]

it's really nice that you can just go online and buy a Tesla in three clicks. instead of negotiating with a frat bro wearing too much cologne using high pressure sales tactics on you for 4 hours
