YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Seven of the country’s largest tech companies have signed a pledge to keep AI from raising electricity prices. Executives went to the White House Wednesday and agreed to cover the costs for the electricity and infrastructure needed for data centers.

The companies that signed the pledge are some of the leaders in AI, like Google, Meta and OpenAI. The data centers they’re building across the country have also sparked fears of rising energy prices.

The pledge is not legally binding.
