Exowatt has a modular system to help power data centers designed to capture energy from the sun and store it as heat trib.al/Jney22y

Exowatt launches today! ☀️ The power requirements to scale AI are astronomical. Within a decade AI will require 650TWh of new power generation – more than the electricity demand of South Korea. In the U.S. alone, data centers will require the equivalent amount of electricity to

Last year, everyone was worried about access to compute. Today, everyone is worried about access to energy. Renewable energy can power the data centers of the AI era, and Exowatt founders Jack Abraham and Hannan Parvizian are building that future. We're honored to be backing

"Energy, not compute, will be the #1 bottleneck to AI progress." – Mark Zuckerberg

Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt says energy demand for AI is infinite and we are never going to meet our climate goals anyway, so we may as well bet on building AI to solve the problem

Bain: -Data center boom could require $2T+ in new energy resources globally -US utilities face 7-26% generation increase by 2028, biggest challenge in decades -44% of US load growth from data centers thru '28 -Utilities need 10%+ revenue requirement to fund required capex

Had the honor of working with Jim during my Thiel Fellowship days. Excited to see him nominated to be Deputy Secretary of Health of the HHS! Jim is brilliant. The future is bright.

My latest: tech elites fearful of their safety are signing up for a new home security startup promising a military-grade alarm system using drones, facial recognition, and sensor fusion called ... Sauron
