The future of AI infrastructure might be above our heads, not beneath our feet. Discussed with @CNN why moving data centers to orbit isn't just Musk's vision—it's becoming a necessity as we exceed Earth's power generation capacity. @chrisidore edition.cnn.com/2026/02/04/b...
Elon Musk’s bold new plan to put AI in orbit isn’t as crazy as it sounds | CNN Business
Elon Musk believes the best way to solve the difficulties of building AI data centers on earth is to move them into outer space. His merger this week of his rocket company SpaceX with his artificial…
