> Many regular people in US are furious because their home electricity bills are skyrocketing just to keep big tech data centers running.

I hope you understand this is an oversimplification. See for example:

https://newsletter.semianalysis.com/p/are-ai-datacenters-increasing-electric

"In the Lone Star State, prices have been roughly stable for the last three years. On the other hand, the 67 million residents of the PJM area are set to see their bill increase by an average of ~15% in 2026 relative to the “pre-AI-Datacenter” era? Why such a divergence? In short, empirically the fault is government policy, not AI."

There's a lot of anecdotes saying it's pretty good and the benchmarks say so as well. Waiting to hear back from some of my favorite builders to see how they like it.
