While I do think there is an incentive to scale up physical infrastructure, there is a lot of "AI Washing" happening in the space, with bog standard energy projects being justified for "AI Scaling", especially because ESG as a investment category is dead, and a lot of energy investments would be bucketed under the ESG asset class.

That comment wasn't targeted at you. I just find AI washing arguments laughable sometimes. It's very similar to the ambulance chasing and scare tactics that is a major part of Cybersecurity GTM.

Total red herring. Your argument for why AI cannot be a risk is because it depends on so much physical infrastructure. Sure, this infrastructure isn't going to come from thin air, but if there are strong incentives to put in place then it makes no difference whether it came from thin air or VC checkbooks. It is then in place, ergo your rationale for why this cannot be a risk is invalid.
