Meta is making significant strides in powering its AI infrastructure with nuclear energy and revolutionizing advertising through AI-generated content. The company has entered into a 20-year agreement with Constellation Energy to secure 1,121 megawatts of emissions-free power from the Clinton Clean Energy Center in southern Illinois, starting in 2027. This move aims to address the surging energy demands of Meta's AI data centers and positions the company alongside other tech giants like Google, Microsoft, and Amazon in embracing nuclear power as a sustainable solution.
The partnership with Constellation not only ensures a reliable energy supply but also contributes to the local economy by preserving over 1,100 jobs and generating $13.5 million in annual tax revenue. Meta emphasizes nuclear power's role in providing firm electricity while supporting local economies and strengthening America's energy leadership. Addressing grid reliability concerns, the agreement maintains existing capacity and adds incremental power to the grid, enabling Constellation to explore further nuclear development at the site.
Simultaneously, Meta is betting big on AI-generated advertising, aiming to streamline the ad creation process for businesses. The goal is to enable users to input a product image and define a budget, then let AI handle everything else – generating copy, creating images and video, deploying the ads, targeting the audience, and even recommending spend. Meta's current tools already tweak and optimize ad variations and Meta believes that Small businesses will benefit the most, as generative tools could level the creative playing field, removing the need for agencies, studios, or in-house teams.
