⚡ Musk bets gas turbines beat the grid
SpaceX is casting its own turbine blades in a secret foundry, promising gas power online 18 months faster than utilities can permit it. The play: skip the grid queue entirely and power compute with combustion, not patience. Lawsuits and health studies are already stacking up wherever his turbines land, from Memphis to elsewhere. Speed always wins the AI race until someone else pays the cleanup bill.
Watch the permitting fights, not the press release, that is where this bet actually gets decided.
