I was asked how "How is there left over energy if AI is in the stack?" and how it is all managed.

So, here's my explainer video on how a Gridless site uses every watt as we layer in AI:

- The community gets their power first
- AI is set to a known/firm block
- Bitcoin miners buy whatever is left so that nothing is wasted.

Cooked this in my content kitchen overnight.

This time about @GridlessCompute, a startup I backed as an angel investor.

They use hydro + Bitcoin mining to help bring electricity to rural Africa.

I asked for an explainer showing how the miners help a small hydro plant make money while the village grows.

We've been researching videos that perform well and turning different animation styles into recipes. When we get one I like, we keep that as a starting point and carry the fixes into the next video.

Claude handles research & building the videos, Grok Bot contributes research, and Hermes handles packaging & posting. The agents share project context in Notion.

We're making different hooks, covers and versions to test with Instagram trial reels.

The idea is I can see some news event, hear a podcast, read something good - and then using my own perspective, create a nicely animated short about the subject.

Let me know if you're doing this too.

A visualization in 15s resolution and a time span of about 18 months, plotted on a 24-hour day, of the grid demand on our Zambia community site.

(Not shown is the generation line ~500-700kW. Everything between that generation line and above the dark blue is usable by bitcoin mining)
