马斯克预言，未来3年内太空将成为AI部署最具成本效益的地点。他认为，当前AI发展面临的核心瓶颈并非芯片短缺，而是地球能源供应无法满足AI基础设施的爆发式增长需求。
OpenAI承诺数据中心全额承担能源成本，并严格限制用水，以缓解社区对公用事业费用上涨的担忧。此举回应了AI大模型对算力需求激增引发的能耗与环境影响讨论。
微软CEO纳德拉在达沃斯论坛提出，AI的“token”正成为新型全球商品，其能源成本将直接影响各国GDP增长。这意味着AI竞争已上升到国家能源战略与基础设施层面，算力成为由电力驱动的实体资源，决定地区经济潜力。
英国政府近期启动了 “人工智能机遇行动计划”，该计划投资20亿英镑，旨在提升国家在人工智能领域的领导地位。然而，伴随人工智能的快速发展，电力需求也在急剧上升。政府需要确保未来五年内，计算能力增长二十倍的目标能够实现，确保电网能够支持这一庞大的需求，否则英国可能会面临人工智能发展放缓、运营成本增加以及对不可持续能源的依赖。图源备注：图片由AI生成，图片授权服务商Midjourney为了解决人工智能行业的电力需求，英国能源和技术部长召开了人工智能能源委员
