President Biden signed an executive order to accelerate the development of AI infrastructure in the U.S., focusing on data centers and clean energy. Federal agencies will make government sites available for these projects, streamlining the permitting process and grid connections. Developers will be responsible for all construction and operational costs, ensuring no price increases for consumers.
The order also prioritizes public labor agreements and supports smaller AI companies. This initiative aims to secure U.S. leadership in AI, protect national security, and promote clean energy, while also addressing concerns about water usage by data centers.
