How To Talk About: Data Centers

Episode Description from the Publisher

On this episode of the Happy Hour, Michael and Anna discuss How To Talk About Data Centers, specifically the one in Utah that Shark Tank's own Mr. Wonderful is trying to build at the expense of the taxpayers--oh, and the whole environment of the state of Utah. He even got into a combative interview with the new People's Hero Tucker Carlson over why taxpayers should fund this type of project. Data centers are all the rage right now, given the exponential growth of AI, and the massive computing power needs of these systems. So whether you use Claude or not, you better believe AI is here to stay and we better have a plan for how to safely do this.
