There is only a fixed amount of silicon production capacity. That can't be scaled up quickly. Powering all produced chips 24x7 is therefore the maximum energy

There is only a fixed amount of silicon production capacity. That can't be scaled up quickly. Powering all produced chips 24x7 is therefore the maximum energy use. I suspect these huge AI datacenter proposals are bigger than that - and therefore either aren't going to happen, or will be delayed many years.
