YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The epic investment in artificial intelligence is raising some big questions. Where do we get the electricity to run all those new data centers? And once they’re built, what effects will AI have on society?

Republican Gov. Spencer Cox of Utah is one of the elected officials facing those questions.

In an interview with NPR’s Steve Inskeep, Cox said Utah is promoting more nuclear power plants, yet he also said he worries about the consequences of AI and wants to preserve his state’s power to regulate it.
