This topic is personal to me. I work at a startup that builds power plants for data centers and AI. Today's video is sponsored by Zone Frontier (NYSE: ZONE). Their investor page is linked below so you can read the filings yourself. Nothing in this video is investment advice, so always do your own research. Let me know in the comments how you think AI will change energy over the next 10 years.
