“Alex Kantrowitz, the founder of Big Technology, suggests that these trends are likely to foster growth in other market sectors that are closely linked to AI. One such sector is energy, which Kantrowitz believes will see increased demand from customers engaged in AI development and training Large Language Models.”

Follow-up

The prediction is that AI development and LLM training will increase demand in the energy sector. As of late 2024/early 2025, public reporting indicates a growing concern and observable rise in data-center and AI-related electricity demand, aligning with the prediction's direction. The full extent of 'growth' is still developing but the trend is evident.
