I sat next to Larry at dinner the night before the masters, we talked for quite a while. He did mention transitioning out of his role within the next 12 months, so something to keep an eye on in terms of leadership and decision making. Timing on opportunities might be important if there are pending leadership changes. We also discussed powering data centers during the current AI boom, and the tradeoff between renewables and fossil fuels.
