Behind every prompt, agent and model, sits a system that needs to be built, funded and powered. And as organisations and countries race to adopt AI, the demand for access is accelerating. So could a technology that's built to allow limitless thinking, end up limited by a country's network and ability to build? Because the future of AI depends on compute capacity. That depends on infrastructure. And that depends on energy. And it's those elements which determine the price we all pay to use it. Tune in to find out: Why AI is creating a new race for energy and infrastructure Why data centres could become a strategic resource How energy-intensive AI could also help solve sustainability challenges Why the future of AI depends on decisions being made today This episode is part of The Green Room's series exploring the AI future for the UK.
