Verbatim, from the transcripts: the passages where Google comes up
Will inference move to the edge?
- ▶ 4:54 Shayle Kann He's also a visiting researcher at Google.
- ▶ 6:08 Dr. Ben Lee The first is massive hyperscale data centers, the ones run by Microsoft and Google and Amazon, hundreds of thousands of machines, massive facilities. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 48:24 Shayle Kann He's also a visiting researcher at Google.

- ▶ 7:46 Shanu Matthew You know, these are, think of it as, like, the cloud service providers, the Amazons, the Googles,
Inside a $300 million bet on AI for physical R&D
- ▶ 2:44 Shayle Kann At that time, Doge had been leading efforts in that area for Google DeepMind for some time, and I thought of him as being both very knowledgeable in the space, obviously, also pretty sober about it. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 4:32 Shayle Kann And I was having you explain to me the wild world of AI for materials discovery in particular, and the work that you'd been doing at Google DeepMind, but also just like the broader landscape. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 15:25 Doge Chubuk You know, when we think about OpenAI and DeepMind, I remember back in 2016, people used to make fun of these institutions for prioritizing AGI so much, because they were saying we're going to do AGI.

The mechanics of data center flexibility
- ▶ 3:11 Shayle Kann Google actually made a big announcement about doing this at their data centers just a few weeks ago. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 5:28 Varun Sivaram Nowadays, with the increasingly customized design of these AI factories and some of the amazing efforts of the hyperscalers, such as Google, these numbers are falling, and therefore, you can get 80 or 90% of the power
- ▶ 19:47 Shayle Kann Google's actually been talking about doing that for years for the purpose of lower carbon, right? 4 times in the scene
Fresh intel from state utility regulatory filings
- ▶ 30:40 Nat Bullard Or, you know, one, one aspect is, is this something that we've already kind of internalized by just getting a Nest thermostat already, and people just don't think about it? 2 times in the scene
The state of play of data center development
- ▶ 23:16 Chris Sharp Uh, workload that I'm working on with a specific customer, but just some of the stuff spoken about publicly, but you look at like some of the most recent announcements from Google and like Gemini and the, and VO three, those are probably…
- ▶ 32:45 Shayle Kann The cloud example used to be like, we're tagging photos for Google images or whatever.
How geothermal gets built
- ▶ 0:29 unnamed speaker Plus, we're going to have a live open circuit episode featuring Caroline Golan from Google, and a live Green Blueprint episode featuring Rick Needham from Commonwealth Fusion Systems.
- ▶ 3:25 Shayle Kann Fervo Energy, notably, has PPAs, both with utilities and with Google, for hundreds of megawatts of new development.

- ▶ 4:23 Shayle Kann Anyway, Elemental came out of stealth this week and announced a big partnership with Google to develop a three-site portfolio of at least 1.8 gigawatts of new nuclear in the U.S.
- ▶ 7:35 Shayle Kann I mean, what I think historically, correct me if I'm wrong, anybody who's considering new nuclear in the United States wasn't really doing a corporate PPA type offtake prior to this new, this new wave right now, where obviously you guys… 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 14:04 Shayle Kann The deal that you just announced with Google is for three projects of 1.8 plus gigawatts total, so 600 megawatts plus per project. 4 times in the scene
