BlackRock CEO Larry Fink on why china is ahead in the AI energy race. "We don't have the ability to build fast enough. And then I go watch China. China's building 100 gigawatts of nuclear. They're building close to 100 gigawatts of solar." https://x.com/ArkkDaily/status/2079265078805766252/video/1

Billions of dollars and he doesn’t know JACK. Solar buildouts are hampered in the US because of the current admin, they’re suing to cancel solar and force coal. TX is building generation as fast as it can. NY’s “moratorium” is an invitation to a datacenter feast in October. https://x.com/themachinespace/status/2078158447917359113?s=46

@rohanpaul_ai Fink is right that the AI race collapses to who can build electrons. US edge isn’t more moratoriums - it’s jurisdictions that still want GW load and have land + fuel + interconnect paths. That’s why we’re putting campus work in Texas, not waiting on coastal queues.

@rohanpaul_ai Before Trump won, this CEO was pushing DEI and whatnot. Now, he talks about competing? Competing means hiring the best of the best, not based on DEI skin woke whatnot. China only hire the best. Only the best gets promoted. Results matter, not DEI.

@rohanpaul_ai He's right. Competion is supposed to make you evaluate what you did wrong and change. Banning things is basically closing your eyes and pretending the boogie monster doesn't exist. Eventually you need to face your fears head on.

@rohanpaul_ai Scaling intelligence is hitting a hard wall and we are clearly losing the infrastructure race
