As artificial intelligence (AI) continues to evolve, its energy demands are skyrocketing, presenting a unique challenge for countries like the United States and China. By 2030, the U.S. is projected to consume a staggering 426 terawatt-hours (TWh) of energy for AI-related activities, while China is expected to reach around 277 TWh. This disparity highlights not only the rapid growth of AI but also the critical role that energy sourcing will play in the future of technological advancements.
