“I mean the size of this thing, it’s crazy,” Rice says. “We are hearing estimates for power demand for AI that’s anywhere [from] 50 to 75 gigawatts of power, which is the equivalent of the power needed to power 10 to 15 New York Cities.”
As David Friedman keeps pointing out, A.I. isn’t like the software revolution, it’s more heavy metal. “If you want to understand where AI is really going, ignore the hype cycles and product demos. Watch the grid.”
