AI Is Getting Better at Answers. Nobody’s Getting Better at Judgment.
AI consciousness research is having a moment, and Anthropic found its model has thoughts it never says out loud. But nobody can define what it means to experience anything, not for the machine and not for you. The machines keep getting better at producing answers. Deciding which answer matters was always your job, and tech companies hiring philosophers just proved it. #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #60SecondsWithSacco #AIConsciousness #Anthropic #Claude #FutureOfWork #Leadership #DecisionMaking #Judgment #Philosophy #TechNews #Mindfulness #Silence #PeteSacco

The AI buildout is the construction of the data centers, power, and compute that artificial intelligence runs on — the largest private construction project in human history. Pete Sacco has spent almost three decades building these facilities and writes about how the infrastructure gets built and what it does to the people it serves.
Data centers used about 4.4% of US electricity in 2023, and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory projects 6.7% to 12% by 2028, driven largely by AI servers. Worldwide, the International Energy Agency expects data center consumption to roughly double from 485 TWh in 2025 to 950 TWh in 2030, about 3% of global electricity.

Living in Bliss: Achieve a Balanced Existence of Body, Mind & Spirit (2025) is Pete Sacco's guide to getting healthy, clear, and present while running a company and a household. It turns Commit, Learn, Do — the framework behind his own 358-pound turnaround — into practical daily steps.
Pete Sacco is a modern-day mystic because his path runs through both engineering and inner practice. After hitting bottom at 358 pounds in 2010, he rebuilt body, then mind, then spirit, leading to a spiritual awakening in 2023 and a daily meditation practice he now brings into business and technology.
