The Download newsletter identifies ten climate tech companies to watch, including those developing mobile flood barriers, semi-solid-state batteries, and compressed-CO2 storage. The list highlights the surge in AI data center energy demands and includes a company working on next-generation nuclear reactors. Key facts include Musk's new Pentagon role, the 36% rise in tech billionaire wealth, and a planned national ban on smart glasses in Norway. The article notes AI slop has doubled submissions on arXiv and McDonald's faces AI pricing lawsuits, though these topics are not climate-related.
