The real cost of AI isn't in your software subscription. It's showing up on your energy bill — and soon, possibly yours.
Senators are now investigating how massive AI data centers are driving up electricity costs for small businesses. That's not hype. That's policy.
You've already felt the hidden costs of AI. That tool your team doesn't use. That consultant who promised transformation and delivered a Slack integration. The $200/month quietly draining while nobody notices.
Here's what this actually means for you as a business owner: AI infrastructure costs are real and rising. The companies building these tools will pass those costs downstream. That's one more reason to be deliberate — not rushed — about which AI tools you actually adopt.
The smart move right now isn't buying more software. It's auditing what you already have. Pick one repetitive task your team does manually every week. One. Find the simplest tool that automates just that. Measure the time saved in 30 days. That's your first real AI win — no ripping anything apart, no coding required.
Big infrastructure decisions are being made right now that will affect your costs and your options. You deserve a seat at that table, not just the invoice.
What's one AI tool you've paid for that your team quietly stopped using?
