The example of a VC that hires a typist even though he can type faster is apt.
Today almost nobody hires typists because information technology has advanced to the point that it is faster to do it yourself than have to communicate to another human.
On a different point, I doubt that use of AI will be energy-bound any time soon (training is a different matter). Inference cost will drop dramatically as dedicated hardware comes online and algorithms continue to improve.
