AI in Business
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

If anybody has any objections, speak now or forever hold your peace, basically.

AI in Business
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

And I think this is going to have their application that they put out for was like for a million orbital data centers.

AI in Business
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

So there's going to be a massive satellite constellation.

AI in Business
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

Elon has floated the idea.

AI in Business
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

And a lot of people think this is like kind of science fiction.

AI in Business
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

But I think there's a lot of real engineering that goes into this.

AI in Business
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

So one of the elements that a lot of people are talking about is lunar manufacturing.

AI in Business
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

So literally building like factors on the moon that can launch and develop and create these.

data centers.

XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

And I think one of the parts of this is that as far as regulation goes, you have to, I think, deorbit your satellites every five years or have a plan for deorbiting so that we don't just have unlimited space junk.

XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

These things have to be able to basically come down.

AI in Business
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

A lot of people have it where they just reenter the atmosphere and burn up.

AI in Business
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

And that's kind of their deorbiting plan.

AI in Business
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

And I

AI in Business

It feels like we might have perhaps ways to capture them and bring them to the moon to get retrofitted, or perhaps we're still going to let them just burn up on reentry and just keep, you know, our factory on the moon pumping out more and more solar paneled, solar panel covered space compute data centers.

AI in Business
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

It's a really interesting, really interesting thought here.

AI in Business
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

But in any case, I think one thing that was said by Elon that was interesting, he said, it's difficult to imagine what an intelligence of that scale would think about

AI in Business
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

perhaps it's going to be incredibly exciting to see it happen.

AI in Business
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

I think there are a lot of critics that are kind of focusing on some of the cost comparisons between ground and orbital data centers.

AI in Business
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

I think they often are kind of assuming static launch and economics, which is basically the entire premise is hinging on Starship here, right?
