“AI will consume a lot of energy in the data centers, but the power of AI will ultimately unlock sustainability and efficiency across all industries.”

The typical justification for AI’s huge energy demand is a mix of wishful thinking and ignorance (ie ignoring Jevons’ Paradox).

The battle for transparency may be over in crypto, but it has only just started for AI
