Musk's 50 million GPUs make every official forecast look quaint
Solving AI's Energy Crisis with Decentralized Compute, w/ Akash CEO Greg Osuri (The People's AI: The Decentralized AI Podcast)
“Elon said they want to build… They want to bring about 50 million GPUs by next five years. H100 equivalents… H100 takes about a kilowatt in energy. You can do the math… So the predictions from Department of Energy, I think, are very, very conservative.” — 00:08:45
Context: The 50M figure lands at end of block [00:07:59]; 50 million kilowatt-class chips implies ~50 GW of new demand from one company alone.
