The Data Center Revolt: John Cassidy & Faiz Shakir
Season 2
Episode 244
An AI revolution is underway, but so is the resistance. People across the country are feeling the strain of the huge energy-sucking data processing centers that AI requires, and telling their elected officials to slow down or stop new big tech projects. John Cassidy and Faiz Shakir say AI expansion is not a red or blue issue; it’s about who controls the technology and who stands to benefit.
