Data Center Revolution · Ep 147: Why Data Centers Will Rebuild the Middle Class with Greg Genung - Part 1 · 12 May 2026 podcast

And we're going to be doing podcasts with local elected officials.

I just spoke earlier this month, actually, the capital of Austin with eight or nine other industry experts.

Yeah.

Talking about, you know, we're not in session in Texas, but they're going to be in session next year.

And they wanted to have some shit that they're going to talk about.

And you can imagine the data centers is front and center as it should be.

Well, because everyone up there is talking about energy and water and technology capabilities and limitations.

I don't give a shit about any of those things.

I'm talking about labor.

I'm talking about building back a middle-class workforce.

I'm talking about giving jobs to transitioning veterans or kids that don't want to go to college or parents who can't afford to send their kids to college and are looking for an alternative for them.

And I'm like, there's an industry that's starving.

Half a million people short today, let alone all the other jobs that are going to be created.

My kids will have a job in this industry in years from now, and those jobs haven't even been invented yet.

That's what AI is going to do for us.

So AI isn't as scary as people think.

And people like me are using AI to understand how to analyze and interpret.

massive volumes of aggregate information so that I could go have a greater impact on humanity by giving people jobs.

But how do I map that out?

I mean, there are so many opportunities, but they're buried in data.
