Musk says artificial intelligence may encounter bottlenecks in power generation capacity by the middle of next year
According to online reports, Musk said on Tuesday that as the technology industry builds increasingly large data centers, the development of artificial intelligence may encounter bottlenecks in power generation capacity by the middle of next year. Musk said in an interview that his AI startup xAI is planning to build a giva-level facility near Memphis, Tennessee, which will be completed in six to nine months. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, 1 gigawatt is equivalent to the power generation capacity of an ordinary nuclear power plant in the United States. Musk pointed out that artificial intelligence faces three major limitations when expanding its scale: chips, transformers and power generation capabilities. Musk said: "When we solve the transformer shortage problem, we will fundamentally solve the power generation shortage problem. My guess is that maybe by the middle of next year or the end of next year, people will start to encounter challenges in power generation." Google also warned in February that the United States was facing a power crisis. Caroline Golin, global head of energy market development at Google, said that the company began exploring nuclear energy applications after realizing that renewable energy could cause instability to the power grid.
