    Nuclear indeed does make sense. Good. ????

      Sure makes us vulnerable though. From foreign attacks, hackers, and mistakes in operation.

    What.. wind and solar are not it !?! Say it ain’t so! Mind-blowing!

      Because they’re intermittent (the sun isn’t always shining, and the wind isn’t always blowing). Maybe in the future if storage technology improves enough then wind and solar could work for AI data centres. But for now, nuclear provides 24/7/365 reliable carbon-free energy.

    end game will be fusion like in Sim City 3000

    This is the future many small reactors!

    At least nuclear energy is less harmful than coal burning
    But a company with capabilities like Google should opt first for green alternatives like wind or solar energy
