Energy & AI: The Power Couple

Mar 8, 2025

11:30am – 12:30pm CT

Energy has emerged as mission critical in the emerging AI revolution. Big tech is racing to resolve its own AI-driven energy requirements. Four of the top ten supercomputers in the world are managed by the US Department of Energy. The relationship between the AI and energy duo is complex: will AI create a new wave of energy scarcity, or drive big changes in discovery, efficiency and innovation? We will dig into this complex relationship, opportunity, challenges, what this means for Texas, and people around the world. Onward, and upward.
