In his State of the Union address, former President Trump proposed a plan to combat rising energy costs by focusing on fossil fuels like oil and coal. Additionally, the plan aimed to make AI data centers responsible for their own power expenses. This strategy reflects a continued reliance on traditional energy sources and shifts the financial burden of power consumption to large technology companies. The emphasis on fossil fuels and the potential impact on tech companies' operations underscores a divergence from clean energy initiatives and a potential financial strain on the technology sector.
