This is crypto scare all over again.

My answer is still the same you always have to do a cost benefit analysis.

AI is many times more valuable than the energy it consumes and thus:

AI doesn't have an energy problem, energy have an AI problem.

I think it would be more accurate to say that, if AI wasn't constrained by the limits to production of compute, then everyone else would have an "energy costs too much" problem.

I think the jury is still out on the cost benefit of AI on the long run.

Doesn‘t look good at the moment
