Is there anyway to make it use less at it gets more advanced or will there be huge power plants just dedicated to AI all over the world soon?

I also asked ChatGPT itself, and it listed a number of approaches, and one that sounded good to me is to pin layers to GPUs, for example we have 500 GPUs: cards 1-100 have permanently loaded layers 1-30 of AI, cards 101-200 have permanently loaded layers 31-60 and so on, this way no need to frequently load huge matrices itself as they stay in GPUs permanently, just basically pipeline user prompt through appropriate sequence of GPUs.
I can confirm as a human with domain knowledge that this is indeed a commonly used approach when a model doesn’t fit into a single GPU.
