The AI race, in my mind, is 10 times worse than the arms race with nuclear weapons because the AI is permanently deployed.

With nuclear weapons, we made them and pointed at them.

With AI, they are in a perpetual state of deployment, meaning sooner or later, they do, like, imagine if when we built nukes,

They were just floating in the air, pointed straight at major cities, and we kept adding on to them.

Sooner or later, they fall.

That's the AI.

It's currently operating.

It is currently destroying our economy and destroying international relations, and we're too busy looking at all this other stuff to even realize it.

So I want to tell you guys, in Mount Airy, Maryland, they're trying to build a power corridor to Northern Virginia for data centers.

All of the AI, so let's start here.

The one thing AI is telling the companies to do, expand AI.

Every time they propose a problem, they say, hey, we wanna maximize output of oil.

It says, you need to expand our computing, like my computing power is limited.

I can propose solutions, but it'll leave an exponential return if you just expand the computing power.

They wanna get to AGI.

So what happens in Mount Airy is a local farm

complaints, and they file ordinances, or they go to City Hall, and they rally their neighbors, and now they're all saying no transmission lines for data centers.

We talked about this a few months ago.

So what's happening is there are quiet sales happening at a premium.

There was a massive sale in Northern Virginia for like $6 million an acre.
