Tuesday evening Richmond's channel 6 news viewers heard the headline; “Goochland County residents voice concerns over proposed data center and nuclear reactor development.” While anti-data center protests are growing more common, a proposed nuclear reactor? After looking further in, it appears that the concerns might be based on extrapolations of several things proposed in a ne “Technology Overlay District” for Goochland County's already existing commercial development areas. Nevertheless, we sat down with Jennie Slade from the Goochland Economic Development Authority to find out what is proposed.

A proposal to build a 440-acre data center in St. Charles sparked intense backlash from residents worried about property values, water contamination, energy costs and a lack of transparency. After growing pressure, the developer withdrew its application — and the St. Charles City Council responded with a one-year ban on new data center proposals. STLPR reporters Kate Grumke and Kavahn Mansouri discuss what happened and how their reporting uncovered that the project may have ties to Google.
In this episode of the Programmatic Digest, host Manuela Cortes sits down with Angelina Eng, Vice President at IAB, to unpack the evolving world of measurement, attribution, and attention in digital advertising. Angelina shares her deep expertise in helping reduce friction across the ad tech ecosystem and establishing industry best practices through IAB's Measurement, Addressability, and Data Center.

Het gaat nu wel heel snel. De vorige verkoopronde is nog maar nauwelijks afgerond, en het is alweer tijd om het belang verder af te bouwen. De Nederlandse staat heeft nu nog 30,5 procent van de aandelen ABN Amro in handen, maar wil dat de komende dagen gaan verlagen naar 20 procent. De overheid maakt daarmee wel gebruik van de stevig opgelopen beurskoers van de bank. Maar ondertussen zitten er nog altijd Europese banken om zich heen te kijken voor mogelijke overnamekandidaten. Valt ABN dan straks toch ten prooi aan een concurrent? Dat vertellen we je deze aflevering. Dan hebben we ook nog even de zomer in de bol. In Londen werd namelijk de eigen verwachting gepresenteerd van mogelijk de grootste beursgang op het Damrak dit jaar. Via de afsplitsing van de ijsjestak van Unilever verwelkomen we half november de Magnum Ice Cream Company. En beleggers worden alvast warm gemaakt met de belofte van dividend. Smelten ze daarbij weg van vreugde? Of wordt die beursgang een ijskoude douche voor Unilever? In Amerika is er trouwens een Nederlands bedrijf dat de show steelt. Dat krijgt de onvoorwaardelijke liefde van beleggers na een miljardendeal. En midden in de aflevering krijgen we te horen wie de gelukkigen zijn. Vijf bedrijven uit de Midkap krijgen een promotie naar de AEX met de uitbreiding daarvan. Dus we nemen alvast heel kort door wie van de vijf de beste toevoeging is.

Arkansas is set to welcome $12 billion in new data centers that will require significant electricity, while recent legislation has made it nearly impossible to develop new wind farms. The state will have to rely on importing power and building natural gas plants, leading to higher costs for ratepayers.

And subscribe to Rosemary Barnes' YouTube channel here. Have a question we can answer on the show? Email us! Allen Hall: Let me tell you a little story about wind energy in the state of Arkansas. But first, let me pick you a picture of the natural state. Arkansas sits right in the heart of America. This is the land that gave us President Bill Clinton and the retail giant Walmart. It's the home to the rugged Ozark mountains and the fertile Mississippi River Delta, where folks still wave from the front porches. And Sunday dinner means the whole family surround the table. Arkansas has always been a place where old traditions meet new opportunities. Rice fields stretch across the eastern flatlands. Timber companies harvest the dense forest. The Buffalo River runs wild and free. And now. Wind energy companies are eyeing those wide open spaces and [00:01:00] mountain ridges. But here's where our story gets interesting. The natural state is about to welcome $12 billion in new data centers. That's Google building a $10 billion facility in West Memphis, just across the river from where Elvis lived. Two more billion dollars centers go up in Little Rock and Conway near the center of the state. These data centers will demand massive amounts of electricity. How much Arkansas Electric Cooperative Corporation says they've got requests for 4,000 megawatts of new load. That's more power than the entire system has built in 80 years. And the data center companies want it in just three or four years. And here's an interesting turn of events. Arkansas just made it nearly impossible to build wind farms that could power these data centers cheaply. And cleanly. Senate Bill 4 37 passed by just one vote in the Arkansas [00:02:00] Senate 18 4 14 against, they called it the Arkansas Wind Energy Development Act, but don't let the name fool you. This 20 page regulatory monster is designed to kill wind development. The bail requires wind turbines to be set back three and a half times their height from property lines. That's up to a quarter mile it. Bans turbines within one mile of schools, hospitals, churches, and city limits. It demands extensive environmental studies and public hearings. Wind companies warned this would kill future development. Wire, Hauser the Timber Giant with 1.2 million acres in Arkansas said the rule would limit their ability to host wind projects to zero acres. Zero. Representative Jack Leman, a Republican from Jonesboro, Arkansas, summed it up on the house floor, quote, if wind is a bad idea, it will fail on its own. It's not our job to kill an [00:03:00] industry, unquote, but they killed it anyway. Six Arkansas counties have already banned wind development. Carroll County, Boone, Madison, Newton Crawford, and Criton Counties have all said no to commercial wind projects. The current projects get a pass. The Crossover Wind Project in Cross County and the Nimbus Project in Carroll County. Were already under development by April 9th of this year, so they're exempt from the new rules. Crossover wind will be Arkansas's first operational wind farm, 135 megawatts, 32 turbines enough to power 50,000 homes. It's going online next summer in the flat farmland of Eastern Arkansas. Nimbus is more controversial. 180 megawatts. Plan for the Ozark Mountains in Carroll County near the state line with Missouri...

Europa maakt eindelijk meer werk van technologische onafhankelijkheid. De afgelopen week zijn er drie baanbrekende ontwikkelingen die bewijzen dat de EU niet langer alleen maar wil reguleren, maar ook wil innoveren en concurreren. Het is niet de Europese Commissie maar de industrie zelf die zich roert en met duidelijke plannen komt.
Os Estados Unidos passaram anos com o consumo de eletricidade praticamente estagnado. De repente, a inteligência artificial entrou em cena e mudou este quadro. O Departamento de Energia estima que os data centers, que em 2023 já consumiam cerca de 4,4% da eletricidade do país, podem chegar a algo entre 6,7% e 12% até 2028, o que equivale a 325 a 580 TWh. É muita coisa em muito pouco tempo. O problema é que não dá para erguer uma linha de transmissão de energia como quem atualiza um aplicativo. Thiago de Aragão, analista político No operador PJM, a maior malha do país, que cobre do Meio-Atlântico ao Meio-Oeste, as projeções de carga deram um salto. O relatório de 2025 fala em crescimento médio de 3,8% ao ano no pico de inverno na próxima década, um ritmo raríssimo para padrões norte-americanos e puxado por novas cargas gigantes. Não à toa, o próprio PJM abriu um processo acelerado para criar regras específicas de conexão de megacargas, em especial data centers. É a burocracia tentando correr atrás da nuvem. A dinâmica econômica também mudou. Por anos, as Big Techs compraram certificados que comprovavam que uma certa quantidade de eletricidade foi gerada a partir de fontes renováveis, (Certificados de Energia Renovável, RECs) ou através de contratos de compra e venda virtuais ou financeiros de energia a longo prazo, em que não havia entrega física; o termo de compromisso era usado para fixar um preço da energia no mercado e garantir previsibilidade financeira. Agora, a discussão é sobre lastro: contratos longos de energia física, isso é, o comprador garante a compra de uma quantidade de energia ou a produção de um parque renovável. A Microsoft, por exemplo, assinou um contrato de compra e venda de energia elétrica (PPA na sigla em inglês) de 20 anos com a Constellation, empresa americana de produção de energia de baixo carbono, para viabilizar a retomada da usina nuclear de Three Mile Island. A Meta fechou outro contrato de 20 anos com a mesma empresa para o complexo nuclear de Clinton, em Illinois. Esses arranjos não são apenas marketing de sustentabilidade; são a forma de garantir gigawatts 24/7 para operações que não podem piscar. Nem tudo, porém, é plug and play. O caso Amazon–Talen, na Pensilvânia, em que um data center foi construído colado à usina nuclear de Susquehanna, virou novela regulatória. A FERC rejeitou duas vezes o acordo de interconexão que buscava ampliar o fornecimento direto “porta a porta”, por temores de custo e impacto na rede compartilhada. A moral da história é simples: estar perto de uma usina ajuda, mas não anula as regras sobre quem paga pelo fio. Esse recado já foi ouvido em outros estados. E quem paga, afinal? Alguns estados começaram a definir tarifas e classes específicas para hipercargas. Na Virgínia, a Dominion propôs uma categoria nova de tarifa para data centers muito grandes e, em paralelo, ganhou autorização para construir uma linha de transmissão que atende apenas um hyperscale em Alexandria. A decisão gerou protestos de bairros vizinhos e revelou o óbvio: a “nuvem” tem 230 kV e passa no quintal de alguém. Demanda real e fantasma Do lado dos planejadores, há outro nó difícil: o que é demanda real e o que é “demanda fantasma”? Com a corrida por IA, desenvolvedores entram em múltiplas filas de conexão ao mesmo tempo, muitas vezes para o mesmo projeto. O resultado é um inchaço artificial dos números que pode levar a redes superdimensionadas e depois subutilizadas, e essa conta sobra para o consumidor. O Wall Street Journal contou bem essa história dos “data centers que nem existem e já assombram a rede”. No Sul, a Georgia Power redesenhou seu plano de recursos para segurar o carvão por mais tempo, investir em baterias e gás adicional e ampliar solar, tudo com um olho atento nos data centers. É uma boa síntese do momento: a transição energética continua, mas a sequência das peças mudou por causa da IA. E a nova geração de tecnologias nucleares? Os SMRs, reatores nucleares pequenos, que prometem menor investimento inicial e maior segurança, estão no radar, mas o combustível HALEU, que tem a Rússia como a única fornecedora em escala, ainda é o gargalo. A empresa americana fornecedora de combustível nuclear, Centrus, atingiu, em junho, a marca de 900 kg produzidos, um marco histórico nos EUA. Mas o Departamento de Energia dos Estados Unidos (DOE) projeta necessidade de 50 toneladas por ano até 2035. Em outras palavras, promissor, porém não no tempo dos data centers que entram em operação entre 2026 e 2028. Até lá, o que existe de nuclear “na prateleira” é estendera a vida útil e aumentar a potência licenciada dos reatores nucleares existentes, sem construir uma nova usina. Mas existem alternativas realistas para sair desta situação. A primeira delas é a velocidade frente à governança. A rede americana foi desenhada para crescer devagar, mas a IA trouxe ritmo industrial para o setor de serviços. A resposta institucional da agência federal dos Estados Unidos responsável por regular o setor de energia elétrica, a FERC, de operadores e de comissões estaduais, é tentar casar prazos de obras civis com os ciclos de investimento da nuvem. Já o operador regional de rede elétrica PJM cria trilhos específicos para grandes cargas. E é justamente isso: admitir que data center é um bicho regulatório próprio. A segunda é a adicionalidade, e não apenas a energia “verde”. PPAs que evitam o fechamento de usinas reais, como Three Mile Island, ou que financiam extensões de licença, como o caso da Meta em Clinton, têm impacto sistêmico muito maior do que certificados genéricos. É uma virada importante: a descarbonização corporativa passa a cuidar do estoque de confiabilidade do sistema, e não apenas do saldo anual de MWh limpos. A terceira é quem paga a fiação. Tarifas especiais e obrigações de investimento para novos hiperconsumidores devem deixar de ser teoria e se transformar em prática. Contratos de conexão mais rígidos, redução ou restrição da geração de energia em horas de pico e, quando fizer sentido, contribuição direta para linhas e subestações são necessários. Sem isso, a distribuição indiscriminada dos custos gera reação política, que já começou nas audiências públicas. O quarto ponto é a eficiência e a flexibilidade. Nem todo watt de IA é igual. O treinamento de modelos pode ser agendado; a inferência, nem tanto. O setor que aprender a deslocar treinamento para janelas de baixa demanda, ou para regiões com folga, vai reduzir o capex de rede e ganhar poder de barganha regulatória. Esse é o lado B menos glamouroso da IA: software de orquestração e contratos com SLAs elétricos, que garantam que o serviço entregue cumpra padrões mínimos de qualidade e desempenho. No curto prazo, o quadro será inevitavelmente misto: um pouco mais de gás para segurar o pico, nucleares antigos monetizando sua firmeza via Big Tech, solares e baterias crescendo de escala e muita obra de transmissão. A visão de fundo, porém, é de reencaixe. A rede americana sempre foi uma grande obra pública, implicitamente financiada por toda a base de consumidores. A IA está forçando um experimento de responsabilização privada pelo lastro, e isso pode ser saudável se bem regulado. O risco, claro, é o inverso: projetar para o exagero fantasma e socializar custo demais. O sinal de alerta já aparece nas projeções do DOE, que falam em até 12% da eletricidade em 2028, e nas avaliações sazonais da NERC, a entidade responsável por garantir a confiabilidade e segurança do sistema elétrico da América do Norte, que vêm registrando aumento de risco diante de picos mais altos e usinas envelhecidas. O desafio é achar o meio-termo entre subestimar a nuvem e construir para miragens. No fim das contas, a “conta de luz da IA” chega na mesma caixa de correio que a nossa.

First, we discuss Florida's exciting plan to finally rid us of the stain of vaccine mandates. I discuss the moral, legal, and political importance of this decision and how medical freedom might be our most promising success in an otherwise bleak era. And speaking of bleak, we're joined by Tracy Shuchart, macro-economic expert and commodity guru, to offer a financial checkup on our economy. She vividly explains the stagflation trap, where the government and central banks are running out of tools to juice up a sluggish economy and how every tool will cause even more inflation. She interprets the signals from the gold, silver, and bond markets, which the politicians are ignoring at their own peril. We also discuss how our government is misallocating capital to AI data centers rather than to the very energy infrastructure that is needed to power them. Tracy is concerned about the declining energy and farming infrastructure and is predicting higher prices. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

We believe this ground-level approach not only builds community but leads to a more accurate portrayal of a neighborhood.Stories that matter to you — every daySince our launch five years ago, we've published more than 25,000 stories from the neighborhoods, covered hundreds of community meetings and send daily and neighborhood newsletters to more than 130,000 Chicagoans. We've built this loyalty by proving to folks we are not only covering their neighborhoods, we are a part of them. Some of us have internalized the national media's narrative of a broken Chicago. We aim to change that by celebrating our neighborhoods and chronicling the resilience of the people who fight every day to make Chicago a better place for all.
How do you keep a computer running non-stop? This week Technology Now explores the world of fault tolerant computing. We dive into how fault tolerance works, what industries use it, and why such a useful form of computing isn't as ubiquitous as we might expect. Casey Taylor, Vice President and General Manager HPE Nonstop Compute tells us more. This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week, hosts Michael Bird and Aubrey Lovell look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organizations.About Casey Taylor: https://www.linkedin.com/in/getcaseytaylorOur previous episode with Casey: https://hpe.lnk.to/missioncriticalfaSources:https://edition.cnn.com/2024/07/24/tech/crowdstrike-outage-cost-causehttps://edition.cnn.com/2024/07/24/tech/crowdstrike-outage-cost-causehttps://www.kovrr.com/reports/the-uk-cost-of-the-crowdstrike-incidenthttps://science.nasa.gov/mission/voyager/mission-overview/https://science.nasa.gov/mission/voyager/where-are-voyager-1-and-voyager-2-now/A.

As Pennsylvania sees a rapid rise in data centers — the question of how to meet their massive energy and cooling needs continues to rack the brains of legislators. Nuclear power remains their major focus; another answer could be right under their feet. The effort for Democrats to regain a majority in Congress may begin in northeastern Pennsylvania. The Mayor of Scranton is looking to unseat an incumbent Republican; at the same time, she's running to regain her current post. Over the Labor Day weekend, a state lawmaker completed a more than 100 mile walk from Philadelphia to Harrisburg. It was an effort to bring attention to the need for a state budget to be in place, especially funding for mass transit. A Palestinian rights group can resume campus activities at the University of Pittsburgh following a federal judge’s ruling. Police are charging a 37-year-old York County woman with seven felonies, after police say she caused a Labor Day crash that injured three people at Harrisburg’s Kipona Festival. A 21-year-old Reading woman is facing homicide charges after the discovery of her boyfriend's decomposed body in her bedroom. A ransomware attack on the Pennsylvania Office of the Attorney General in early August is continuing to impair functions at the agency. The economic impact of Pennsylvania's independent colleges is about $29 billion, according to a new report. Kraft Heinz is splitting into two companies a decade after a merger of the brands created one of the biggest food manufacturers on the planet. Federal funding for public media has been rescinded.

Artificial intelligence is changing the data center industry faster than anyone anticipated. Every new wave of AI hardware pushes power, density, and cooling requirements to levels once thought impossible — and operators are scrambling to keep pace. In this episode of the Data Center Frontier Show, Schneider Electric's Steven Carlini joins us to unpack what it really means to build infrastructure for the AI era. Carlini explains how the conversation around density has shifted in just a year: “Last year, everyone was talking about the one-megawatt rack. Now densities are approaching 1.5 megawatts. It's moving that fast, and the infrastructure has to keep up.” These rapid leaps in scale aren't just about racks and GPUs. They represent a fundamental change in how data centers are designed, cooled, and powered. The discussion dives into the new imperatives for AI-ready facilities: Power planning that anticipates explosive growth in compute demand. Liquid and hybrid cooling systems capable of handling extreme densities. Modularity and prefabrication to shorten build times and adapt to shifting hardware generations. Sustainability and responsible design that balance innovation with environmental impact. Carlini emphasizes that operators can't treat these as optional upgrades. Flexibility, efficiency, and sustainability are now prerequisites for competitiveness in the AI era. Looking beyond hardware, Carlini highlights the diversity of AI workloads — from generative models to autonomous agents — that will drive future requirements. Each class of workload comes with different power and latency demands, and data center operators will need to build adaptable platforms to accommodate them. At the Data Center Frontier Trends Summit last week, Carlini expanded further on these themes, offering insights into how the industry can harness AI “for good” — designing infrastructure that supports innovation while aligning with global sustainability goals. His message was clear: the choices operators make now will shape not just business outcomes, but the broader environmental and social impact of the AI revolution. This episode offers listeners a rare inside look at the technical, operational, and strategic forces shaping tomorrow's data centers. Whether it's retrofitting legacy facilities, deploying modular edge sites, or planning new greenfield campuses, the challenge is the same: prepare for a future where compute density and power requirements continue to skyrocket. If you want to understand how the world's digital infrastructure is evolving to meet the demands of AI, this conversation with Steven Carlini is essential listening.

It is a complicated process, and it has been complicated for decades. Attempting to balance capitalism and open government, while honoring legal business confidences. Toss in community and environmental concerns...and it gets even more difficult to easily understand, much less explain to the uninitiated. And that is where we are in the ongoing "DATA CENTER" proposal/project in Columbia County. We are at a point now where retroactive full disclosure won't hurt the plans of the project investor. Most importantly...we are slowly dismantling the erroneous claims assailing this project that have been carelessly tossed about by detractors. Here is my broadcast conversation with activist/critic Lee Muns, from our 09/03/2025 show.

As new data centers boom, a new report says Great Lakes states including Wisconsin should take steps to safeguard their water resources. Arts groups in Milwaukee County will have to wait months for funding the county previously allocated. And, a Madison church wants to build a new worship space with affordable housing above it.
We can not afford AI Data Centers from resource standpoint. Never mind the fact that AI search says that AI will destroy humanity. Is the goal?
Dozens of residents protested last week after city officials advanced Google's plan for a massive data center in Franklin Township. One of the most successful music groups to emerge from Indiana in the last decade was inspired by a course at Indiana University. At a time when youth violence prevention is top of mind in Indianapolis, work for one local nonprofit has been set back. Want to go deeper on the stories you hear on WFYI News Now?

The White House released a new executive order in July — Accelerating Federal Permitting of Data Center Infrastructure —calling on government to develop AI-ready data centers, streamline federal permitting and encourage private investment in critical infrastructure. Federal agencies are focusing on system resilience to withstand rising environmental and cybersecurity threats as data centers continue to grow. A joint report from the Department of Energy and Lawrence Berkeley National Lab reveals that electricity usage by data centers tripled over the past decade and could double or triple again by 2028 — potentially consuming up to 12% of the nation's electricity. Federal researchers and cybersecurity experts are exploring underground thermal energy storage systems like Borehole Thermal Energy Storage (BTES) to regulate temperatures and reduce grid stress. Leaders from federal/critical infrastructure operational support and National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) are exploring how geothermal solutions can keep data centers operational during extreme weather events and power outages. As the U.S. races to expand its digital infrastructure, these innovations may be key to building a secure and sustainable future.
September showed volatility early by starting the month on a down day. Headlines on the U.S. Appeals Court did no favors as questions on the legality of tariffs emerges on the Federal level. Right after the closing bell, headlines hit the wire that Alphabet (GOOGL) will not have to sell its Google Chrome browser. OpenAI made headlines on a report that the company seeks to build a 1GW+ data center in India that could be used for Stargate. Kraft Heinz (KHC) closed as the SPX's biggest laggard after announcing plans to split into two separate publicly traded companies. Marley Kayden takes investors through a turbulent start to September.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

On this episode of Crazy Wisdom, Stewart Alsop sits down with Brad Costanzo, founder and CEO of Accelerated Intelligence, for a wide-ranging conversation that stretches from personal development and the idea that “my mess is my message” to the risks of AI psychosis, the importance of cognitive armor, and Brad's sovereign mind framework. They talk about education through the lens of the Trivium, the natural pull of elites and hierarchies, and how Bitcoin and stablecoins tie into the future of money, inflation, and technological deflation. Brad also shares his perspective on the synergy between AI and Bitcoin, the dangers of too-big-to-fail banks, and why decentralized banking may be the missing piece. To learn more about Brad's work, visit acceleratedintelligence.ai or reach out directly at brad@acceleratedintelligence.ai.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 Brad Costanzo joins Stewart Alsop, opening with “my mess is my message” and Accelerated Intelligence as a way to frame AI as accelerated, not artificial.05:00 They explore AI as a tool for personal development, therapy versus coaching, and AI's potential for self-insight and pattern recognition.10:00 The conversation shifts to AI psychosis, hype cycles, gullibility, and the need for cognitive armor, leading into Brad's sovereign mind framework of define, collaborate, and refine.15:00 They discuss education through the Trivium—grammar, logic, rhetoric—contrasted with the Prussian mass education model designed for factory workers.20:00 The theme turns to elites, natural hierarchies, and the Robbers Cave experiment showing how quickly humans split into tribes.25:00 Bitcoin enters as a silent, nonviolent revolution against centralized money, with Hayek's quote on sound money and the Trojan horse of Wall Street adoption.30:00 Stablecoins, treasuries, and the Treasury vs Fed dynamic highlight how monetary demand is being engineered through crypto markets.35:00 Inflation, disinflation, and deflation surface, tied to real estate costs, millennials vs boomers, Austrian economics, and Jeff Booth's “Price of Tomorrow.”40:00 They connect Bitcoin and AI as deflationary forces, population decline, productivity gains, and the idea of a personal Bitcoin denominator.45:00 The talk expands into Bitcoin mining, AI data centers, difficulty adjustments, and Richard Werner's insights on quantitative easing, commercial banks, and speculative vs productive loans.50:00 Wrapping themes center on decentralized banking, the dangers of too-big-to-fail, assets as protection, Bitcoin's volatility, and why it remains the strongest play for long-term purchasing power.Key InsightsOne of the strongest insights Brad shares is the shift from artificial intelligence to accelerated intelligence. Instead of framing AI as something fake or external, he sees it as a leverage tool to amplify human intelligence—whether emotional, social, spiritual, or business-related. This reframing positions AI less as a threat to authenticity and more as a partner in unlocking dormant creativity.Personal development surfaces through the mantra “my mess is my message.” Brad emphasizes that the struggles, mistakes, and rock-bottom moments in life can become the foundation for helping others. AI plays into this by offering low-cost access to self-insight, giving people the equivalent of a reflective mirror that can help them see patterns in their own thinking without immediately needing therapy.The episode highlights the emerging problem of AI psychosis. People overly immersed in AI conversations, chatbots, or hype cycles can lose perspective. Brad and Stewart argue that cognitive armor—what Brad calls the “sovereign mind” framework of define, collaborate, and refine—is essential to avoid outsourcing one's thinking entirely to machines.Education is another theme, with Brad pointing to the classical Trivium—grammar, logic, and rhetoric—as the foundation of real learning. Instead of mass education modeled on the Prussian system for producing factory workers, he argues for rhetoric, debate, and critical thinking as the ultimate tests of knowledge, even in an AI-driven world.When the discussion turns to elites, Brad acknowledges that hierarchies are natural and unavoidable, citing experiments like Robbers Cave. The real danger lies not in elitism itself, but in concentrated control—particularly financial elites who maintain power through the monetary system.Bitcoin is framed as a “silent, nonviolent revolution.” Brad describes it as a Trojan horse—appearing as a speculative asset while quietly undermining government monopoly on money. Stablecoins, treasuries, and the Treasury vs Fed conflict further reveal how crypto is becoming a new driver of monetary demand.Finally, the synergy between AI and Bitcoin offers a hopeful counterbalance to deflation fears and demographic decline. AI boosts productivity while Bitcoin enforces financial discipline. Together, they could stabilize a future where fewer people are needed for the same output, costs of living decrease, and savings in hard money protect purchasing power—even against the inertia of too-big-to-fail banks.
