We are apparently in a war with China over dominance in artificial intelligence, which requires a lot of electricity. Spoiled as I am by normally low electricity rates, when last month’s electric bill arrived it was 51 percent higher than the same period last year. The price per kWh of electricity from our electric cooperative has been stable and predictable. (Trump is shockingly dumb about (electric) energy, Bill McKibben on Substack).
