Using his wolf like fangs, unrelated to werewolves, he bites gingerly, slowly, cautiously, gently, carefully, methodically, sluggishly, and ever so gradually into your neck as he claims you for generations to come, in more ways than one

A complicated question to answer, I doubt anybody would have a definitively correct answer to it.
The answer is probably both really. It’s not like the internet has just stopped expanding and everything is going into AI now. But AI takes up an unproportional amount of the computational power. A data center can house servers for hundreds of different companies or even individuals, all doing different things with them. An AI data center can be dedicated to one singular company who rents out the entire space for hundreds of servers purely for AI.
Much like it’d be difficult to count every human on earth, there will probably never be a definitive number on how much is dedicated to AI. However, a study by the Electric Power Research Institute in 2024 estimated that between 10-20% of data center power consumption came from AI.
That seems relatively low, until you consider that 10-20% is compared to the 80-90% of power that goes towards literally everything else across the entire internet, and it keeps going up rapidly. For every 8-9 servers used for accounting data, sales records, research, communication networks, streaming services, security systems, medical records, multiplayer game servers, automated factory processes, and everything else in the world that computers handle, there are 1-2 servers dedicated ENTIRELY to JUST AI. And the proportion going to AI just keeps going up.

Data centers are actually useful for a lot of things, handling traffic to websites, storing records, academic research, and whatnot. There’s a very good chance your medical records are distributed across various data centers.
AI is absolutely not one of those useful things, and is a big driving factor for the rapid expansion of new data centers which are sucking up so many valuable resources for something so useless. Data centers are not bad, AI data centers are bad

My tiny dog is shockingly not like this
Quiet, very rarely barks, first instinct when meeting a new person is to roll over for belly rubs, and quite smart and well behaved all round
Best dog I could’ve asked for

My dad taught me to score them. I find it strange, scoring them prevents the supposed thief from being able to get the tag off cleanly, so they wouldn’t want to apply it to their car because it’d look sketchy?
Unlike your totally normal and not at all now obviously damaged and sketchy looking tags?

I broke my left arm 25 years ago. And it’s still broken today.
Healing bones is a perpetual cycle. You need that arm because you’ve lived with it, it made your limbs weak.
