Agreed on the AI.

Battery though, we have seen the price (USD/KWh) go down every year, and the energy density (KWh/kg) increase every year.

Research articles are usually things that take years to trickle down into the mass production. And by then the hopes or lab results no longer translate, or they've evolved into improvements and savings that are harder to link back to their original source.
