Samsung has about 78,000 people in its semiconductor division, and while bonuses will vary the average comes out to a stunning $340,000 per worker.

Data centers are the leading cause of a 76% increase in the cost of electricity for America's largest power grid over just the first 3 months of this year, according to Bloomberg.

The 13-state grid managed by PJM serves 67 million people, and costs have spiked this year.

This time last year the cost of electricity on this grid was $77.78 per megawatt-hour. Now that cost has almost doubled to $136.53 per megawatt-hour.

Bloomberg attributes that skyrocketing cost to the "booming demand from artificial intelligence data centers, which require vast amounts of energy and are putting a significant burden on America’s aging power grids."
