Artificial intelligence arrives on our screens as if it lives nowhere. In reality, every model depends on a vast physical system of power plants, transmission lines, transformers, cooling equipment, water systems, fiber networks, construction crews, land, and local communities. The Cities That Feed the Machine follows that hidden industrial geography from the first electric networks to today's hyperscale data centers. It explains why the race for AI is becoming a race for electricity, infrastructure, engineering capacity, and permission to build. Along the way, Mason Alderidge shows how bottlenecks that appear mundane can shape billion-dollar decisions-and why the people who understand those bottlenecks may become unusually valuable. This is not a book about predicting which AI company wins. It is a book about seeing the physical civilization being built beneath the digital revolution, and recognizing where the next generation of engineers, operators, specialists, and founders may find their place.
