🚨 Meta Going Nuclear for AI?

Meta is locking in nuclear power for decades to keep its AI running and this signals how extreme the AI energy race has become.

In partnership with

Hello There!

Meta is locking in decades of nuclear power to keep its AI data centers running at full speed, which means AI strategy is now closer to energy contracts than slide decks so maybe keep an eye on the power bill along with the roadmap. Google Meet is making AI note taking automatic for meetings, which means fewer frantic scribbles for you but also a gentle reminder to think twice before saying anything you would not want summarized by a very attentive robot. And Elon Musk’s xAI may be building the brain for Tesla’s robots instead of Tesla itself, which means ownership, trust, and who really controls the intelligence might soon matter more to your career than who owns the hardware.

Here's what's making headlines in the world of AI and innovation today.

🧠The Pulse

Meta just inked massive 20‑year deals to buy nuclear power from three U.S. plants and co‑develop small modular reactors with Oklo and TerraPower. The agreements totalling up to 6.6 gigawatts by 2035 underscore how AI‑driven data centres force tech giants to secure long‑term energy.

šŸ“ŒThe Download

  • Nuclear supply – Meta signed 20‑year power purchase agreements to buy electricity from three U.S. nuclear plants in Ohio and Pennsylvania. The agreements will run through 2046, guaranteeing a long‑term stream of zero‑carbon power for its expanding data centres.

  • Modular reactors – The company will also partner with startup Oklo and TerraPower, backed by Bill Gates, to develop small modular reactors. These compact, advanced reactors could provide flexible baseload power for near-future data‑centre sites.

  • Capacity by 2035 – Combined, the nuclear contracts and reactor projects could supply up to 6.6 gigawatts of power by 2035, enough to run a fleet of energy‑hungry AI servers. Meta joins other tech firms locking in long‑term electricity deals.

  • Energy arms race – Explosive AI and data‑centre growth are fueling an energy arms race. By securing nuclear capacity, Meta signals that long‑term, zero‑carbon power is vital for competitiveness. Others are exploring wind, solar, and geothermal to meet demand.

šŸ’”What This Means for You

For professionals, Meta’s nuclear agreements show that energy sourcing is now strategic. Expect IT and facilities teams to collaborate with utilities and regulators. Organisations reliant on AI may need to consider long‑term power contracts, sustainability goals, grid reliability, budgets, and resilience when planning expansions and procurement policies globally.

🧠The Pulse

Google Meet is giving hosts more control over automatic meeting notes. A new toggle lets them automatically start the ā€˜Take notes for me’ feature, capturing summaries and action items. It’s off by default, subject to admin controls and eligibility tiers, and aims to improve meeting productivity across organisations today.

šŸ“ŒThe Download

  • Automatic toggle – Previously, note‑taking had to be started manually or by co‑hosts. Now hosts can enable an option so that ā€˜Take notes for me’ begins automatically when meetings start, ensuring discussion points are captured without extra clicks.

  • Participant experience – When active, Meet records summaries, action items, and decisions. A banner informs participants via notices that an AI assistant is taking notes, and they can opt out by leaving or declining note‑taking if uncomfortable.

  • Admin controls – Administrators can turn the feature on or off for domains or groups, deciding which hosts have the toggle. Users need Gemini for Workspace licences (Business Plus, Enterprise tiers, Education Plus/Standard, and Google AI Pro/Ultra) to access it.

  • Rollout & availability – The toggle is off by default and rolling out gradually. It’s available to Business Plus, Enterprise Plus, Education Plus, and Education Standard. Google will update the setting inthe coming weeks.

šŸ’”What This Means for You

For meeting organisers, automatic note‑taking frees you from scribbling during calls and helps capture commitments. Announce when AI is logging notes, check admin settings, and verify summaries before sharing. Respect participants’ privacy preferences, treat AI notes as drafts rather than final minutes, and protect sensitive discussions through proper approvals.

🧠The Pulse

Elon Musk’s AI venture xAI is reportedly building the brain for Tesla’s Optimus humanoid robot, not Tesla itself. The revelation came from an investor presentation and raises questions about whether Musk is diverting key AI resources away from the carmaker, with potential legal, strategic, and investor trust ramifications.

šŸ“ŒThe Download

  • AI brain shift – xAI executives told investors that the startup will develop the artificial‑intelligence core for Tesla’s Optimus robot. That contradicts previous claims that Tesla’s ā€œreal‑world AIā€ would power the humanoid, signalling a transfer of critical software.

  • Musk’s dual roles – Elon Musk runs both xAI and Tesla. Critics say using xAI to build Tesla’s most valuable intellectual property could divert resources and talent, raising concerns about fiduciary duty and conflicts of interest between the two companies.

  • Investor backlash – Some Tesla shareholders worry that moving Optimus software to xAI devalues Tesla and enriches Musk’s private venture. Lawsuits have already alleged that Musk stripped Tesla of assets by creating xAI to develop ChatGPT rival Grok.

  • Strategic stakes – Optimus is central to Tesla’s AI narrative. If xAI controls the robot’s brain, Tesla may become a hardware assembler rather than an AI leader. The situation could spark regulatory scrutiny and force corporate governance reforms going forward.

šŸ’”What This Means for You

For professionals, the xAI–Tesla saga shows how leadership of critical AI assets can affect corporate value and trust. When considering partnerships or employment, examine ownership structures and governance. The outcome may influence how tech founders juggle multiple ventures and handle intellectual property obligations, transparency, and accountability in the future.
