The AI race isn't being won in the model lab — it's being won in the power grid. And right now, America is losing. Motley Fool analyst Rachel Warren talks with Hannan Happi, co-founder and CEO of Exowatt — backed by Sam Altman and Andreessen Horowitz — about why the AI build-out is hitting a wall that no amount of chips or software can fix. They get into why a one-year grid delay costs a hyperscaler $12 billion in missed revenue, why China has 10 times more capacity than the US to build AI infrastructure, and what investors need to actually be tracking as hundreds of billions of dollars flow into the AI build-out — including whether the data centers being built today will still be operating in ten years.

Host: Rachel Warren

Guest: Hannan Happi

Producers: Dennis Golin, Lauren Budabin
