E30: 818,000 Jobs Gone, $155 Billion Spent: The Three Dots That Connect Your Company's Future

Your company spent more on coffee machines than AI last year. Meanwhile, Big Tech invested $155 billion in six months—more than the US government spends on education, jobs, and social services combined. And you're still debating whether to upgrade from ChatGPT 3.5 to 4.0.

Welcome to the infrastructure war that's already deciding your company's survival.

Malcolm Werchota connects three dots that reveal why 818,000 jobs didn't just disappear—they transformed while you were writing your "AI strategy" PowerPoint. From his rain-soaked studio in Bregenz, he exposes the brutal truth: Meta's building data centers that consume as much power as Austria, Trump's government is approving permits like it's wartime, and your competitors aren't asking "if" anymore—they're asking "how fast."

The shocking data that will make you cancel tomorrow's strategy meeting:

• German companies' average AI investment: €37 million. Global average: €47.5 million—already 30% behind
• Job postings mentioning AI increased 400% while IBM cuts 8,000 HR positions
• Meta's single data center will use electricity to power 3.5 million homes
• European AI adoption in manufacturing: <40%. US: >60%. China: Accelerating beyond measurement
• Data center permit in US: 2 weeks. In Europe: 2 years (if you're lucky)

While you debate GDPR compliance, Zuckerberg's building "personal super intelligence for everyone." While you buy Copilot licenses, Google's automating entire job categories. The infrastructure race isn't coming—it's here, and most companies don't even know they're competing.

Your 5-year countdown starts now. Not 15. Not 10. Five.
