I am on the periphery of the ongoing blanketing of the USA with AI
servers.  I have a few facts that might just blow you away.
 The expected number of AI servers in the USA alone is presently a
million (SWAG).  The current cost for a single AI server is $500,000 US.
   1,000,000 x $500,000 = $500 billion US of capital.
 First, What is your source for this data?  Be specific.
 Second, define precisely what an "AI server" is.
 My guess would be a server stuffed with GPU:s.
 1. A huge rackmount frame the size of a refrigerator
2. Two Intel Zeons with 64 or 128 cpus each
3. Many terabytes of ram in 20 to 40 memory slots
4. 10 to 40 SSD hard drives of 1 TB to 8 TB
5. four to twelve Nvidea H100 or H200 boards
6. multiple power supplies
7. etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc
 In other words, it looks like a 1980s / 1990s mini computer in a rack configuration with many swapable / upgradable modules.
 Here is just one variant:

 Just what I would have expected! It will be fun if there's another AI- winter. Then we'll be eating GPU:s for breakfast given all the oversupply that will exist! When do you think disillusionment will set in (if at all)?

The AI disillusionment will start when the companies try to layoff their customer support departments and find out that they cannot do so.

Let us study the example of Klarna with great interest! I think they did exactly that. Instead of having people answering questions about loans and credit, they will let the LLM:s do it and I then assume have a vastly smaller teams of humans catching the hallucinations and edge cases.
