AI HR
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

There's a bunch of executives over there that said that imagine their image generator and video generator is generating tens of millions of videos per day and billions of images over the last month.

AI HR

And that's according to a bunch of their internal metrics.

AI HR
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

That is a lot of usage.

AI HR
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

I think it shows and kind of reflects a bit of a broader thing, which is basically AI is no longer experimental, right?

AI HR
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

It's pretty mainstream.

AI HR
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

And we're seeing this with Chad GBT and a lot of these other players.

AI HR
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

But it is being pushed out on every platform everywhere.

AI HR
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

And a lot of people might call this AI slop.

AI HR
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

And especially with Grok and their image and video generation tools, I think there's a lot of problematic things there.

AI HR

But it's definitely hit scale, like there is, you know, billions of billions of images being generated.

So a lot of those presentations were just kind of what's going on internally at the company.

AI HR
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

The most interesting one that everybody is talking about is when the whole presentation they were giving kind of came towards the end.

AI HR

Elon started talking about what he's been talking about forever, which is space-based AI infrastructure.

AI HR
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

He kind of just reiterated what he has said in the past, that the cheapest place to run large scale AI within a few years is going to be in orbit.

AI HR
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

Basically, the benefits are that space has, you know, constant solar energy, fewer land permitting bottlenecks, although I mean, you got to still got to get your satellites approved and stuff.

AI HR
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

But apparently that's easier than land permitting.

AI HR

on Earth.

AI HR

And then there's also a path to scale compute beyond just terrestrial constraints.

AI HR
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

So SpaceX has already requested regulatory approval to build solar powered orbital data centers.

AI HR
XAI's Radical Plan: Data Centers In Space

I think, you know, we've seen that the administration looks like is kind of looking at this favorably and is going to grant this.
