Trump's right on AI: Data centers aren’t the villain, anti-growth politicians are
The United States faces a critical technological innovation test. Artificial intelligence requires massive amounts of computing power to function. That computing power requires physical infrastructure. America must continue our decadeslong history of building mainframes and data centers to process information in order to maintain our global leadership.
TL;DR
- Artificial intelligence requires massive computing power.
- Computing power depends on physical infrastructure like data centers.
- The US must continue building data centers to maintain global leadership.
- A political movement is actively trying to stop the construction of this infrastructure.
- Activists and local politicians are creating barriers to development.
- This resistance threatens to halt American innovation in AI.
