You can tell it’s clickbait garbage because there’s absolutely no data presented. It’s all ‘based on my conversations.’

It’s also disinformation. Most data center construction and electricity usage is not for AI. And with the models slimming, and equipment becoming more efficient, the usage for AI is actually trending downward. Which is why all of the anti-AI fomenting articles refuse to use data from this year.
