Power Trip: AI, Infrastructure, and the Future Grid


Listen Later

Artificial Intelligence doesn’t just run on power—it’s reshaping how we generate, distribute, and think about it.

In Episode 10 of The Neuvieu AI Show, we explore the evolving relationship between AI and infrastructure through two critical lenses:

  • First, how AI can modernize the U.S. electric grid, optimizing energy flow, predicting outages, and boosting resilience—while also increasing demand through massive data center use.
  • Second, we dive into “test-time compute”—a new AI concept where models use additional computation to improve answers on the fly. It’s a leap forward for intelligence… but a headache for energy use, access equity, and policymaking.

This episode unpacks:

  • The environmental cost of model training and deployment
  • How AI could balance the very grid it strains
  • Why compute power is becoming a new currency in innovation
  • What policymakers must understand about AI’s real-world dependencies

AI is no longer invisible—it’s embedded in every wire, cloud, and regulation. The real question isn’t can AI run our world?

It’s who gets to decide how it runs—and who gets left in the dark?
