> unprecedented and comprehensive look at how much energy the AI industry uses
Not sure about comprehensive claim here if end-to-end query chains were not considered.
For example the mobile wireless node (that're being used by the majority of the users) contribution to the energy consumption are totally ignored. The wireless power amplifier or PA for both sides of users and base-stations are notorious for their inefficiency being only less than than 50% in practice although in theory can be around 80%. Almost all of the current AI applications are cloud based not local-first thus the end users energy consumption and contribution are necessary.
