## AI 摘要

前谷歌CEO Eric Schmidt 在视频中表示，AI真正的限制是资金而非能源：每吉瓦电力基础设施成本约500亿美元，10吉瓦就需要5000亿美元。全球能拿出万亿美元级资本的国家或公司极少，中国有能力做到，美国资本市场也能融资，但欧洲则难以承担。

## 正文

Ex Google CEO, Dr. Eric Schmidt: AI may hit a money wall before it hits a power wall.

"The real limit to AI is not energy; it is actually cash. When you add up the cost of these things, if you take round numbers, say $50 billion per gigawatt, then 10 gigawatts is half a trillion dollars.

How many companies, countries, and so forth can hand an industry a trillion dollars of capital? Very, very few. The Chinese could certainly do it. I do not know if they are doing it, but I am going to try to find out.

In America, there are people who hope that is going to happen. It is interesting that you can finance these things because the brilliance of the American capital market allows us to borrow that kind of money. For example, the Europeans cannot do this, which they are sort of sore about."
