बिजली
AI's binding constraint. Nuclear restarts and SMRs, gas turbines, grid queues, transformers and the utilities and equipment makers behind them.
फील्ड नोट्स
यह वह अनुभाग है जो लोगों को सबसे ज़्यादा चौंकाता है: एक AI डेटाबेस जहाँ आधे रिकॉर्ड बिजली के बारे में हैं। यह कोई भटकाव नहीं है — बिजली अब उद्योग की बाध्यकारी सीमा है, और यहाँ के सौदे (20-साल के nuclear अनुबंध, फिर चालू हुए रिएक्टर) इस साइट के हर chip से अधिक समय तक टिकेंगे।
