Kirk, what's stopping us from making smarter decisions about location of these things?

You know, it's a funny question.

Policymakers are... There's a lot of... You have to understand...

All the rules and regulations that go into automobiles followed the automobile.

You think they had driver license requirements?

They definitely didn't have insurance requirements, right?

There wasn't any speed limits.

There were nothing until policymakers were like, hey, wait a second.

Too many people are running these things into cows.

We have to fix them.

You know what I'm saying?

But it's always, you know, this legislation.

So I can't explain the automobiles.

The federal government being the largest consumer and adopter of cloud being Northern Virginia is why the cloud is there.

But the home for AI will be West Texas.

It sure feels like that, doesn't it?

1,000%, but just to add on top of that, so think about it like this.

Texas has more natural resources than any other state in the union.

More than Alaska.

And it's on grid?
