Most of the energy consumption comes from moving data between memory and compute units rather than the math itself.
While HBM stacked on a silicon interposer was a signification efficiency improvement over traditional DDR, there's still room for improvement. The high energy costs will drive this further, e.g. near-memory/in-memory compute (PIM) or tighter 3D packaging and possibly optical interconnects.
(And of course training/model optimisations)
