From Caveman to Expert Analyst: Energy Consumption of Variable LLM Tasks
arXiv:2608.12350v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The energy demand growth and environmental impacts of artificial intelligence (AI) have generated substantial interest in supplying sufficient low-cost electricity for AI-driven data center development. Research on the ability of demand-side management to address these challenges has been more limited. Shifting the amount or timing of demand from retail, corporate, and other organizational behaviors is a plausible option but only if changes in dema
