AI experts return from China stunned: The U.S. grid is so weak, the race may already be over
What was that study... if US loses 9 of it's 55k substations simultaneously then the whole national electrical network would overload, shit would hit the fan and US could get 18+ month blackout from coast to coast. It's not just about not being able to scale lake boiling amounts of AI-compute, but also a threat of emp strikes, domestic terrorism and solar flares.
I thought you were being hyperbolic. Nope.
I thought it was just the plot of Fubar.
that's one of the reasons i'm frustrated about not being able to afford or have the space necessary for solar power, not even some kind of barebones setup to try and pay for the rest of the needed stuff later, instead i'm looking forward to bartering my neat looking rocks and art pieces made from literal garbage for rice.
