What happens when energy meets AI in the heart of the shale belt?

[Robert Ellis]

I’ve been thinking a lot about where the real infrastructure for AI is going to live—not the headlines, but the power, the land, and the systems that make scale possible.

Just shared a write-up on ShaleScale—our vision for an energy-backed AI supercampus. We’re talking private power, high-density compute, rural scale, and yeah... it kind of looks like something out of Stargate.

Curious what you think:
Can places like Ohio, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia actually lead the next wave of AI infrastructure?
Or does it all stay coastal?

Would love to hear your take—especially if you’re in energy, tech, or building hard infrastructure. This stuff’s happening faster than most people think.
