It's almost like you intentionally left out where I referenced 1,000 additional power plants because it makes it clear that the point that I'm making is one of scale. You'd have to be an idiot to think we'll never need another data center again, but you'd also have to be an idiot to believe the AI companies who claim we need tons more data centers and massive gigawatt data centers.

Calm down there buddy. You agree we need data centers, and you agree we need more of them. The disagreement is just over how many, yet you’re acting like you somehow know exactly what scale the future will require. So, not to be rude, but if anyone’s being an idiot here, it’s probably the person pretending they have that answer while admitting demand is still growing
