All this used to be underwater Lake Mead is... on the border between Nevada and Arizona and it’s water levels are now critically low There are many Data Centers that have been put in the Lake Mead area and draw directly from the lake - Google’s Henderson data center consumed roughly 352 million gallons in one year. It directly pulls from the Lake Mead sourced municipal supply - Flexential Data Center facility used around 20 million gallons in one year - Other Data Centers in the area collectively used over 716 million gallons in 2024, with nearly all the water drawing from Colorado River and Lake Mead sources Pair this with droughts, water demand from agriculture and resident use and now there is almost nothing left… just look at this…. The lake is only at about 32% capacity Why is this being allowedshow more

🚨 A MAJOR STEP FOR ADVANCED NUCLEAR: TERRESTRIAL ENERGY... SECURES 77-ACRE SITE IN TEXAS FOR MOLTEN SALT REACTOR TESTING. Terrestrial Energy has signed agreements to use a large site at the Texas A&M-RELLIS campus to prepare for testing its Integral Molten Salt Reactor (IMSR) a Generation IV small modular reactor design. Unlike traditional nuclear plants that use solid fuel rods and high-pressure water, this design dissolves low-enriched uranium directly into a liquid salt mixture that acts as both fuel and coolant. Why this matters: • The reactor can cool itself through natural air circulation if power is lost no need for backup pumps • It operates at normal atmospheric pressure, significantly reducing the risk of containment failure • Major components can be factory-built and shipped to site, speeding up construction • The company recently passed key NRC safety evaluations and has a deal to study powering large-scale data centers (up to 4 GW) The deeper implication: As AI and data centers drive massive new electricity demand, there’s growing interest in reliable, always-on, low-carbon power sources that can be deployed faster than traditional large reactors. Molten salt designs like this one offer inherent safety advantages and factory production potential that could help nuclear compete in this new market. Securing a dedicated testing site is a concrete sign that this technology is moving from paper studies toward real-world validation. How important do you think advanced nuclear (like molten salt reactors) will be for powering the AI boom compared to renewables + storage? Follow for more frontier energy and next-generation nuclear technology.show more

Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney wants data centers to... be carbon neutral 🤦🏼 "I'd suggest that we can catalyze enormous private sector demand for these (carbon) credits, by committing AI data center development to be carbon neutral. We need a price on carbon." Do you understand how braindead you have to be to suggest to increase the price of computation?! Hundreds of billions of dollars are being invested in data centers in the US, revolutionizing the energy sector and instead of asking why is Canada not building future industries, all the idiot talks about is carbon tax.show more

Something big is happening in robotics - and it’s... hiding in plain sight. This post is not about dancing robots but in the data that powers them. Open robotics datasets have exploded this year, turning the field into a more scalable and collaborative ecosystem. In just two years, Hugging Face datasets grew from 11k to over 600k - and robotics is by far the fastest-growing segment. We went from 1k robotics datasets in 2024 to 27k in 2025! For comparison, text generation, the second-largest category, has only around 5k datasets in 2025. That gap is massive. Open datasets are important because robotics lives and dies by real-world robot data - video, actions, sensors, failures. By making this data easy to upload, reuse, and benchmark, researchers, startups, and large players are now releasing real-robot datasets that would have stayed locked inside labs just a few years ago. Major contributors include NVIDIA, LeRobot initiative, and a rapidly growing maker community. This surge is also enabled by cheaper video storage, better tooling, and an open-source AI culture now spilling into the physical world. And it really matters: open robotics data dramatically lowers entry barriers, accelerates learning-by-doing, and speeds up progress toward generalist and humanoid robots. Robotics won’t scale through hardware alone - but to a large extent through shared data. Viz below from AI World - link to the story and more viz/filters in comment.show more

Larry Fink: The world is going to be short... power. After years of pressuring companies and countries to "transition" to renewables, Larry has done a 180. - Data centers need dispatchable power - Renewables won't get the job done Funny how the arrival of AI suddenly erased all the concerns about climate change. I rarely agree with Larry, but the world needs far more baseload power: - Coal - Natural gas - Nuclear - Maybe even diesel All this after more than a decade of underinvestment in these sectors, thanks in no small part to people like Larry. The irony is that the very people who discouraged investment in reliable energy are now warning the world that it doesn't have enough.show more

The "Neoclouds are too scared of Jensen to offer... TPUs!" tweet reminded me of this quote from the Odd Lots episode with Hudson River Trading's Head of AI: "If you're using TPUs, you're also kind of entering a very close relationship with Google, some feeling of vendor lock in.. It's a complicated thing if you go down that path. But if you're compute hungry like the big labs, you'll take what you can get. I think Anthropic takes TPUs, Trainium, and GPUs, they need them all." You can also just look at the hoops and hurdles Google is going through to find external buyers of TPUs: - Invested $10B+ in Anthropic (and committed to invest $40B+) - Back-stopped Anthropic's data center leases so that Anthropic's data center developers can obtain financing to house the TPU's Anthropic is buying from Google - Created a new neocloud via a JV with Blackstone to offer TPUs (e.g. buy them from Google to rent) CoreWeave and Nebius are already sold out on the GPUs for which they have data center capacity to bring online.. Both want to diversify their customer bases away from hyperscalers and large AI labs. Doesn't seem to make any sense for them to offer TPUs, when Anthropic is the only company actually buying TPUs from Google, and only after being heavily incentivized to do so. $GOOG $CRWV $NBISshow more
