You're looking at secondary effects with a lot of causes, then assuming the cause. Energy prices are far more complicated than just AI. My prices are up because trade war with Canada.
At this point I feel like you're a bot. I'm no expert in the subject but there's plenty of evidence showing the insane amount of resources or request which becomes monumental as the requests become more in depth.
The sky rocketing energy prices may not be felt everywhere just yet but they are felt near data centers that are sprouting up every where. And we're just getting started.
For the "insane amount of resources per request", let me show you some real evidence.
My computer has a 65 Watt cpu. It takes about 70 seconds per request. That's ~1.26 Wh or 790 requests/kWh.
And that's with a cpu. Servers use gpus which are more optimized for the task.
Are you saying that you run a LLM on your CPU?
