China builds a nuclear reactor's worth of solar every two days; America's edge is decentralization
Solving AI's Energy Crisis with Decentralized Compute, w/ Akash CEO Greg Osuri (The People's AI: The Decentralized AI Podcast)
“Chinese are building a gigawatt of solar every two days. I mean, that’s equivalent to one nuclear reactor every two days right now. And they’re very, very good at it. We’re not doing that. And we can’t do that. We’re not Chinese, right? What we can do is decentralization. That we are very good at.” — 00:44:00
Context: His geopolitical close: the US can’t out-build China on generation, so decentralized compute is America’s comparative advantage; praises the AI Action Plan for “accelerationism taking the center stage” [00:44:50].
