Maggie Daun delves into the soaring energy demands of AI power hungry data centers with Amy Barrilleaux from Clean Wisconsin. As these centers burgeon, they threaten to consume energy equivalent to millions of homes, raising questions about grid stability and environmental impacts. The discussion highlights the role of energy utilities and tech giants in escalating these demands, often at the expense of transparency and environmental considerations. Amidst this, the show also offers a fun respite with a civic media contest and lively discussions on sports and music, reminding listeners of Wisconsin's spirited community and culture.
