What if the biggest threat to the AI revolution isn't rogue software, but the staggering, planet-straining amount of electricity required to power it? In this episode of Reality Check, host Dave Nicholson sits down with Dr. Jeremy Barton, a physical chemist and founder of the Nano Dynamics Institute, to explore why our current static models of technology are leading us to false conclusions about the future of computing. While the world worries about building massive 10-gigawatt data centers, Jeremy reveals how nanoscale manufacturing, building three-dimensional structures atom by atom using "DNA origami" and molecular mechanics, can deliver unprecedented energy efficiency. Tune in to find out how shifting away from traditional silicon constraints could completely rewrite global supply chains, decentralized manufacturing, and build a future that looks less like Blade Runner and more like Star Trek.This and more on Reality Check with Dave Nicholson.
