From the post:

>Artificial intelligence is not just changing software. It is also driving a sharp rise in electricity use. In the United States alone, AI systems and data centers consumed about 415 terawatt-hours of electricity in 2024, according to the International Energy Agency. That amounts to more than 10% of the nation’s total energy output, and the figure is expected to double by 2030. That trend is raising a difficult question for the future of AI: Can these systems become more capable without becoming dramatically more expensive to power?

Get it working. Then get it smaller, faster, cheaper. It's how it's always worked.
