In this episode of Beginner’s Guide to AI, Dietmar Fischer talks with Sergii Gerasymovych about the hidden infrastructure layer behind the AI boom. Sergii explains how his journey from linguistics to crypto mining led him into data centers, and why the same world of compute, energy, and operations is now becoming central to artificial intelligence. We talk about AI data centers, neoclouds, GPU infrastructure, inference data centers, training clusters, stranded energy, and the power bottlenecks that could shape the future of AI. This is not just a technical conversation. It is about business strategy, national competitiveness, local communities, capital, and the skilled workers needed to build the physical foundation of artificial intelligence. Key topics in this episode: ⚡ Why AI needs so much power 🏗️ Why data centers are becoming smaller but more energy-intensive ☁️ What neoclouds actually do 🔌 Why electricians and engineers are a major…
