Your briefing should move faster. The YPO Technology Network AI Brief is a daily breakdown of the AI developments that actually matter to your business. No hype, no jargon, no filler — just what changed, what it costs you or saves you, and what to tell your team on Monday. Hosted by Stephen Forte for the leaders who don't have time to chase the news but can't afford to miss it.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-31T20:20:14.078652+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/ypo-technology-network-ai-brief-7728971"},"episode":{"title":"AI Is Now on Your Power Bill","slug":"ai-is-now-on-your-power-bill","published_at":"2026-07-03T10:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/ypo-technology-network-ai-brief-7728971/ai-is-now-on-your-power-bill","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/ypo-technology-network-ai-brief-7728971","url":"https://rss.com/podcasts/ypo-technology-network-ai-brief/2959320","audio_url":"https://content.rss.com/episodes/382927/2959320/ypo-technology-network-ai-brief/2026_07_02_12_36_35_7a532ac2-a0d9-4b5f-94a9-a27a8c0c53b4.mp3","summary":"The AI stories that get headlines are about models and jobs. The one that hits your P&amp;L first is physical: the buildout ran out of the one thing money can't instantly buy — electricity. The bill is landing: Henrico County, Virginia saw power rates jump 25% overnight because of 37 data centers, with schools asked to conserve — a $5M budget hit. Megawatts, not money: Brookfield 5x'd its Bloom Energy power deal to $25B and National Grid put $1.75B into a dedicated gas plant for a Microsoft AI campus — both routing around a grid with 5-year connection queues. JPMorgan pegs AI capex at $5.5T. The squeeze: memory prices are up 700%, with high-end supply sold out into 2028. In our 100th episode, host Stephen Forte on why the constraint shifted from money to megawatts — and three moves: audit your utility contract, treat interconnection queues as your real expansion timeline, and pull hardware refreshes forward.
