    So is another employer willing to pay more for these women? Are they really using their reproductive organ to negotiate a pay gap? What is this?

    Must be nice being able to sue your employer because you have an extra X chromosome. Tech companies are desperate to hire females, if anything they will pay more for the same job just so they can say they have a female engineer, and can you imagine the male employees suing for discrimination? The judge would laugh in their face.

Crusoe CEO Chase Lochmiller discusses the AI infrastructure company’s nearly $4 billion in fresh funding sending its valuation to almost $31 billion. He also discusses how it will fuel the company’s push to build AI infrastructure spanning data centers, cloud computing and managed AI services. He says Crusoe could eventually enter the public markets and pushes back against growing opposition to data centers, arguing the industry has a “marketing issue” and needs to better communicate its impact on water, jobs and local tax revenue.

Calls to “pace” development at the AI frontier are unlikely to translate into a slowdown in infrastructure spending, according to Sara Araghi, Franklin Templeton Portfolio Manager and Franklin Venture Partner. She argues that even if labs temper some model training, growing inference demand will continue to require enormous amounts of compute. Araghi also discusses why…
