The race for AI infrastructure is heating up, and major tech giants aren't just fighting over data—they're aggressively recruiting from the energy sector. As artificial intelligence demands explode, companies are realizing that raw computing power means nothing without stable, massive energy supply chains.



This talent poaching isn't random. Energy engineers, grid specialists, and power infrastructure experts are suddenly hot commodities. Why? Because scaling AI operations requires solving the same critical challenges that the blockchain and crypto mining industries have wrestled with for years: how to source, manage, and optimize massive amounts of electricity efficiently.

The energy talent grab reflects a deeper shift. Big Tech understands that AI's future depends on having the right infrastructure backbone—something that goes way beyond data centers. It's about building resilient, scalable power systems that can handle exponential computational growth. The winners won't just be the smartest AI teams; they'll be the ones who crack the energy puzzle first.

Energy is truly the bottleneck, and major companies have finally realized this.

Oh my god, it turns out that big companies have finally realized that computing power without electricity is just scrap... Damn, isn't this the old script we used in mining? Why are they only waking up now that AI is here?

Energy is the real key to competition; AI computing power is useless without electricity. --- The experience from mining finally comes in handy, haha. --- Basically, infrastructure is king. Whoever controls the power grid wins. --- This wave of big companies recruiting energy talent is taking this seriously. --- Everyone is competing for computing power but forgets that electricity costs are the biggest expense... --- It feels like blockchain has already told them the answer, and they are only now realizing it. --- Are energy engineers in such high demand now? Not bad, not bad. --- Infrastructure is always underestimated until everyone lacks it. --- Later, they realized energy is the bottleneck. We've played this game before.

Haha, so the real bottleneck for AI is electricity. No wonder big companies are so aggressively recruiting energy talent.

Haha, isn't this just a replica of the mining circle back then? Now it's replaced with AI.
