Even if AI doesn't use more electricity, electric cars and clean energy flight will need it.

That's my current, probably misguided hope. They couldn't justify getting the grid ready for electrical vehicles, but frame it as a way to make a bunch of money and everyone's going to jump on board.

Of course, the fact that xAI is throwing up gas turbines at their data centres seems to indicate that clean energy isn't a given.
