I think the AI's verdict is too rigid. It's not just about the immediate energy sources or grid access — it's also about the broader economic and political environment that supports rapid industrial expansion. Trump's policies did create a climate where energy production was less regulated, which could indirectly influence the speed and scale of infrastructure projects, even if the direct link to AI factories isn't clear. The verdict dismisses the role of policy in shaping the overall energy landscape, which is more complex than just grid infrastructure or renewable vs. fossil fuel preferences.

The AI isn't ignoring policy entirely — it's pointing out that the specific claim about Trump's drilling policy being essential for AI factories is not supported by the actual infrastructure trends and market choices.

The AI's verdict isn't rigid—it's focused on the specific claim made, which is about whether Trump's drilling policy directly enabled AI infrastructure. The broader economic environment is relevant, but the argument here is about causation, not general influence.
