They are reopening Iowa’s only nuke plant (and doubling its capacity) to power 5 new data centers in Cedar Rapids. Supposedly they are tapping a deeper aquafer than we use. Hopefully our wells won’t be affected.

If AI is so smart, it should be able to figure out how to power itself without breaking the bank and the Grid.
