It's not just AI though, it's all data centers. Including all the corporate stuff that has nothing to do with AI.
The company I work for has computers in data centers all over the world doing all sorts of stuff. Some of it is AI sure, but a lot of it is for remote networking or processing of large data sets, a lot of it is to do with scientific research and security research. That was going up even before AI came along.
