@gerrymcgovern I think that goes back to the idea of properly pricing energy to represent its real costs.
If that 10 times more intense AI search cost too much in electricity then it wouldn't be done, promoting lower total energy use.
In other words, since we've always underpriced electricity the incentives have never been there to really focus on lowering total energy use, and we could change that.
Demand will not explode if prices surge to reflect costs.
