Why Meta Bulldozed a Brand New Datacenter.

What if the race for Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) isn't being won with code, but with concrete and cooling pipes? What if the next tech titan won't just be a software company, but a global energy superpower?

In this episode, we're exposing the brutal, physical reality of the AI revolution. You'll learn why the AI datacenters of today are a completely different species from the server farms of the past, requiring monstrous compute density and liquid cooling systems just to keep from melting. We'll take you to Temple, Texas, where Meta made the shocking decision to tear down a brand-new traditional datacenter just to build a more powerful AI-optimized one in its place.

This is the untold story of the AI arms race, where the ultimate weapon is raw power—so much power that tech giants are now investing in their own nuclear power plants.

Stick with us to the very end as we reveal the staggering amount of energy a single AI query can consume, and what that means for the future of our planet's power grid.

This is the hidden infrastructure that will define the 21st century. Subscribe, share this with anyone curious about the real cost of AI, and let's explore the future being built (and rebuilt) right now.
