“We have approximately 2% market penetration of AI tools. That was all it took to sell out the entire planet’s compute.”
Harry Sudock, Chief Business Officer at CleanSpark, returns to discuss why Bitcoin miners are moving into AI and why that could make Bitcoin stronger. We get into the economics driving the shift, what it means for mining decentralisation, and why Harry believes demand for AI compute is only getting started.
We also discuss the backlash against AI data centres, including concerns about electricity prices, water consumption and noise. Harry explains why he believes building more power could lower energy bills, how data centers can benefit local communities, and why he would start an energy company today.
