Not “crypto mining with AI” just adding capacity for AI data centers. (AI & crypto mining 2 seprate/unrelated things).
From the article:
“Houston-based tech company Lancium and Denver-based Crusoe Energy Systems announced on Thursday morning a multibillion-dollar deal to build a 200-megawatt data center just outside Abilene that is designed to “meet the unique needs of AI companies” — such as enabling advanced cloud computing for applications like medical research and aircraft design. It is the first phase of a larger 1.2-gigawatt build-out.”
I see, two different functions. I thought somebody was adding AI to the capability of bitcoin mining.
