The Indian government's data localization initiative is goin to be a game changer for the domestic data center industry. Companies like Tata Communications, Bharti Airtel, nd Reliance Jio r gonna to benefit significantly. This sector is primed for investment, n I anticipate significant growth in the coming years.

🚨WATCH: The push for green energy is running head first into the push for data centers. Spotsylvania County, Virginia is home to the largest solar panel development east of the Rockies. But despite its large 6,300+ acre footprint, it doesn’t provide enough power for one large data center complex in Loudoun County. Loudoun County has more than 200 data centers, and Virginia has more than 600 data centers. More data centers are on the way.

Frontier AI data center capacity, based on data collected by Epoch AI. It doesn't include every single one, as they focus on the largest ones. Few things stand out: - 2026 will have a huge amount of cpacity come online - Anthropic will lead at some early points in 2026 - 2027 onwards OpenAI has the most projected capacity at the moment, by far

The AI data center will use twice the amount of power as the entire state of Utah and will cause pollution and massive water consumption. - 40,000 acres - 62 square miles - Will use 9 gigawatts of power

The California environmentalists disappear when it comes to data centers 3 new massive data centers are coming to the Bay Area, just one is as large as 30 football fields - Microsoft Data Center in San Jose - Amazon Web Services (AWS) Data Center in Gilroy - Prologis Larger San Jose Project - Amazon Gilroy will use 7.5 million gallon of water per year - Microsoft San Jose newer design with evaporative water use via closed-loop - Still, all 3 combined will use tens of millions of gallons of water per year Combined they will use the same amount of energy as 400,000+ homes annually

Katie Phang on Kevin O'Leary's massive AI data center: "Because of the huge amount of advocacy and blowback and pushback and loud voices in Utah and outside of the state ... the footprint of this data center has to be reduced by 75%. Now, it's not a total win in my humble opinion, but consider this. It just went from 40,000 acres to 10,000 acres."

🚨 Another one bites the dust. Over 100 Apex residents packed a town hall to push back against a massive data center proposal. This small town doesn’t even have a supermarket… yet they want to drop a huge energy-hungry data center right next to homes. Residents raised concerns about: • an already strained power grid • massive water usage • wildlife disruption • constant industrial noise One woman organized the community… and suddenly the room was full. Turns out when people actually show up and speak out, things change. And here’s the thing… Towns across the country are starting to push back on these projects. 👏 Proud of Apex. Proud of North Carolina.

$Despite generating 20% data, India hosts less than 3% of world's data centres. Even after the big new announcements by many private players, only a small fraction of world's data centers will be built in India. But influencers are giving zero information and telling users Ambani is going to control their brain using data centers. Why is every development effort in India targeted by extreme misinformation?$

Co-training has become a key part of the recipe for training large robotics models; it means that you mix some proportion of real robot data with other data sources, like simulation or egocentric human video data. This is especially important because robotics data tends to lack diversity which can be somewhat compensated for by the inclusion of these other modalities. And yet there has not been a sizable study on what constitute good practices for cotraining until now! We talk to Fanqi Lin and Jose Barreiros about their new work, a massive study which evaluated 89 policies over thousands of rollouts to tell us which forms of co-training were most useful for robotics. Watch episode 70 of RoboPapers, with Michael Cho and Chris Paxton, now!

Delhi: On the Union Budget 2026-27, Managing Director of BowerGroupAsia India, Anuj Gupta says, "Artificial Intelligence operates by transforming electricity, with electricity as its primary input and most of this work happens in data centers. In the budget, a tax holiday for data centers has been extended until 2047. This means that if a foreign company sets up a data center in India to provide foreign services, it will not have to pay any tax, almost for 20 years..."

Big Tech is suing a tiny Ohio town of Urbana after its city council listened to the residents and voted no on a massive AI data center Urbana only has a population of about 11,000 but they’re going up against a $20 billion company The company wants to put in a data center so massive it will use 8 times the entire town’s current annual electricity usage The data center project would claim 565 acres The$1 billion AI data center would likely use an enormous amount of water, up to hundreds of millions of gallons per year For a project of this scale, the Thor Equities’ proposal annual usage could easily reach 300–1,800+ million gallons per year in water usage “The city council also put a 12-month moratorium in place on all data centers, and on June 16th, they finalized the zoning regulations that said no data centers, leading Thor Equities to file a federal lawsuit against this tiny town. Laughably, they say they look forward to resolving this so they can continue being a strong partner for Urbana” Even when residents and the city council vote for what they want, these massive companies won’t be stopped

.Josh Wolfe, co-founder of Lux Capital, discusses why the massive build-out of AI data centers may be overextended: "The amount of spend, the amount of CapEx, the amount of build for these multi-gigawatt data centers, it to me does not make sense." “I'm just not that optimistic that all this compute is actually going to be needed."

Chris Camillo explains how Bloom Energy is solving AI data center energy usage problems… “ $BE is one of the only companies in the world that has a method to essentially bring almost an infinite amount of energy to these data centers." And we won't get into all the technology, but they are now working with hyperscalers and they are a resource for energy that will allow a data center to get ramped up quicker. "So, even though it costs a little bit more money today to put an energy cell from Bloom, an energy box from Bloom, which are energy cells, it essentially takes things like natural gas, but instead of burning the natural gas, there is a chemical process that turns that natural gas into energy for the data center."

ASML CEO on Elon Musk's Data Centers in space and Terafab: "I think you need a certain amount of data centers and they will be in space, they will be on the earth. I think the discussion about data centers in space is to address another potential bottleneck in the ecosystem, which is energy. I think the discussion around putting data center in space is there because if you do that, the energy consumption or the energy availability will be there, about trying to solve another potential big issue, which is energy for data center. I think the Terafab is an example of a major fab project."
