US power demand to reach record highs in 2026–2027 driven by AI and data centers 2 hours ago (reuters.com) 4 comments latentframe Reply Add to library Sol- 20 minutes ago Civilization needs energy, not a problem per se. Just generate more, preferably from sustainable sources. gregman1 1 hour ago But where are these data centers? Iirc majority of these new builds are on hold. latentframe 2 hours ago It seems that AI is stopping being just a compute problem and becomes now an energy problem Power infrastructure scales really slower than chips so this could become a real important constraint. aurareturn 1 hour ago This has been true for a few years now. US is gated by power. China is gated by advanced chips.
