About this listen

AI is creating a level of need for data centers, power and processing capacity that has not been seen before - but how to measure the magnitude of that need is the topic for the Metrics Brothers to take on during this episode.


During today's conversation, Dave "CAC" Kellogg and Ray "Growth" Rike discuss many key Data Center metrics including:

  • FLOPS - Floating Point Operations per Second
  • Model Parameters
  • Watts and Gigawatts = Power
  • Gigawatt/hours = Energy
  • First multi-GW data center named Prometheus
  • Why data center size is now being compared to the city of Manhattan


AI is changing the world as we know it - and the Metrics Brothers are diving into this trend metric by metric!
