肯塔基州长贝希尔电视辩论核能与AI：主张数据中心自担成本
10月24日，肯塔基州州长安迪·贝希尔与加利福尼亚州州长候选人史蒂夫·希尔顿在电视节目中就核能与人工智能政策展开辩论，两人展示了截然不同的州治理思路。辩论在《比尔·马赫实时秀》节目中进行，话题涵盖能源基建、人工智能监管以及州政府行政改革。
贝希尔在节目中表示，肯塔基州正在考虑建设多座核反应堆，这可能成为美国最大的核电项目之一。与此同时，他强调肯塔基州要求数据中心开发商自行承担电力、水资源和环境成本，并获得当地社区的同意，而不是把成本转嫁给普通居民。
希尔顿则提出，加利福尼亚州可以通过精简官僚机构、把车管服务下放到县级网点或线上平台来降低行政开支。两人的交锋折射出各州在能源转型与新技术监管上的分歧：一方主张积极建设核能、严管数据中心成本，另一方主张削减政府开支、放松管制。这场辩论也引发外界对美国各州能源政策走向的关注。

Kentucky Gov. Beshear Debates Nuclear Power and AI: Data Centers Should Bear Their Own Costs
On October 24, Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear and California gubernatorial candidate Steve Hilton debated nuclear energy and artificial intelligence policy on television, laying out sharply different approaches to governing. The exchange took place on Real Time with Bill Maher and ranged over energy infrastructure, AI regulation and state government reform.
Beshear said Kentucky is considering building multiple nuclear reactors in what could become one of the largest nuclear power projects in the United States. He also emphasized that Kentucky requires data center developers to bear their own power, water and environmental costs and to win local community consent, rather than shifting costs onto ordinary residents.
Hilton argued California could cut administrative spending by streamlining bureaucracy and moving services such as the DMV to county outlets or online platforms. The clash reflects wider differences among states on energy transition and new-technology regulation: one side favoring active nuclear construction with strict data-center cost rules, the other favoring spending cuts and deregulation. The debate drew attention to where U.S. state energy policy is heading.
