“Trump and Energy Sector Keen to Fuel AI with a Dash of Fossil Fuels”
“Trump and the Energy Industry Are Eager to Power AI With Fossil Fuels”
“Of all the themes emerging from Manhattan’s Artificial Intelligence (AI) Summit last week, perhaps the most surprising was that reused technology is proving to be as revolutionary as the shiny and new. It’s just that in this case, the new revolution supports an old one—fossil fuels, a cause that President Donald Trump has made his own.” -Wired
Whoa, didn’t see that one coming, right? The Manhattan AI Summit, a place known for its bursting new tech ventures, was really over the moon about old, reused tech. You read it right! Especially the tech that’s brushing up shoulder with everyone’s favourite bad boy – fossil fuels. Let’s just take a moment to acknowledge the whimsical irony.
Sure, we all love the swanky new inventions, but the real game-changer has been the recycled tech, an epitome of “One’s man trash is another man’s treasure.” And it seems like Uncle Sam has jumped on the bandwagon with gusto. Our dear President Trump has decided to embrace this motley crew championing his beloved cause – the age-old, ever controversial, fossil fuels. Raise your hand if you saw that coming. No one? Figured.
As the curtains fell on the summit, one theme stood tall: That reused tech, donned in its new avatar, is invigorating the fossils (quite literally). But unlike a certain Jurassic Park sequel, this saga looks promising. Yes, recycling may be every school kid’s buzzword these days, but who knew it’d make such waves in the tech industry?
Ever the poster child for advancement and innovation, AI is now doing its bit to keep our torches (or maybe more appropriately our gas burners) lit. For the Joe Schmoe’s scratching their heads, the AI applications in the energy sector are bridging the gap between supply and demand, optimizing operational efficiency, and consequently helping Big Oil hit a grand slam home run.
How about that for an unexpected plot twist? Just another day in Silicon Valley, eh? It’s a brave new world folks. Buckle up, throw your predictions out the window and let’s ride the wave of re-purposed technology revving up our beloved fossils. The future, as they say, is here. Albeit, remarkably retrospective!
