The defining capability of AI is its unprecedented ability to cross-correlate vast and disparate data sets—scientific, economic, historical, environmental, and social—simultaneously and without fatigue. This is not simply about data analysis; it is about discovering truth through pattern recognition at scales beyond human cognitive limits. The more data points—or “vectors”—an AI can analyze in relation …
The United States stands at a pivotal moment, with its policy decisions poised to profoundly shape the global energy landscape. The world is in the midst of an undeniable transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources, and the critical question is no longer if this will happen, but how fast and who will lead. …
