> The second form of regulation should be on excessive energy consumption. The US Department of Energy needs to declare energy to be a vital human resource, and exorbitant uses for computing to be curtailed.

If you allow AI to use as much as it needs we get much higher capacity and cheaper energy down the line. Growing pains.

I see AI like the coming of a baby in the family - suddenly you need to get a larger house, baby room, ensure babysitting and education, an effort for the whole family. This is the initial cost, which is high for both a baby and AI.
