As the AI boom is driving one of the biggest data center buildouts in history, Southern Company CEO Chris Womack discusses the utility’s growing pipeline of data center projects, its 25-year agreement supporting OpenAI’s planned Georgia expansion, and why he says hyperscalers can bear the cost of new infrastructure while putting downward pressure on electricity rates for existing customers. He joins Ed Ludlow on “Bloomberg Tech.”

It’s very dangerous to go on public TV and defy the masses with these kinds of stories and statements. This guy is telling the general public that that super rich are telling the general public to go fuck themselves in regards to our basic essentials of living like water and power. Not to mention the environmental impact these facilities are having on communities… ALL FOR A PRODUCT THAT WE HAVE SEEN AS ONE OF THE BIGGEST FAILURES OF THE 21ST CENTURY AND A GLOBAL WIDE INVASION OF PRIVACY??? WHO THE FKS IDEA WAS ANY OF THIS???
