Zuckerberg reflects on Google's latest foray into nuclear energy, ensuring our AI overlords (and data centers) never run out of juice.

Move Fast and Generate Things

Alright folks Zuck here. You know back in my Harvard days I was just trying to connect people with Facemash... Now we're talking about powering the very future of AI with *nuclear reactors*! How cool is that? Google's teamed up with Elementl Power to build three nuclear sites. Talk about moving fast and breaking... well hopefully not breaking anything. I mean we all remember Chernobyl right?

From Facemash to Fusion: A Power Play

Amanda Peterson Corio at Google gets it. She says advanced nuclear tech provides "reliable baseload 24/7 energy." Translation: No more embarrassing chatbot outages during peak hours. We need power and we need it now to feed those hungry AI algorithms. It's all about scale people. Just like scaling Facebook from my dorm room to... well you know. But instead of connecting people we're connecting electrons. Same same but different right?

Elementl ary My Dear Watson... Wait It's Nuclear

Elementl Power is playing it smart. They're "technology agnostic," which basically means they're waiting to see which reactor design becomes the next big thing. It's like waiting for the next social media platform to disrupt Facebook... oh wait... Anyway Chris Colbert the CEO knows his stuff coming from NuScale Power. He's aiming for 10 gigawatts of nuclear power by 2035. That's enough to power like a *lot* of cat videos.

Is AI Efficiency a Myth? (Asking for a Friend)

So this Chinese AI startup DeepSeek thought AI was getting *too* efficient and might not need as much power. Silly rabbits! Amazon and Nvidia are setting them straight. AI is hungry and it's not going on a diet anytime soon. Jack Clark from Anthropic estimates we need 50 gigawatts by 2027. That's like building 50 new nuclear plants. Time to break out the hard hats folks!

The Meta morphosis of Energy

We're talking about building the infrastructure for the future here. And let's be real AI isn't just about chatbots and funny filters. It's about solving real world problems and that takes power. Clean reliable nuclear power. So yeah Google's investing in reactors. And who knows maybe one day we'll all be living in a virtual metaverse powered by fusion energy. Now *that's* a world I'd like to see!

Connecting the World One Watt at a Time

From connecting people to connecting electrons it's all about scale and innovation. Google's investment in Elementl Power shows they're serious about powering the AI revolution. And as we all know 'the biggest risk is not taking any risk...' or something like that. Let's build this future together one reactor at a time. Because in the end it's all about making the world more open and connected... and powered. Peace out.

    Zuck, when are you going to build your own nuclear plant at Meta HQ?

    What happens to all the nuclear waste? That's my biggest concern.
