Jevons Paradox: A Term Trending in AI

Jevons Paradox is a term being invoked by tech leaders but one I hadn’t heard before and had to look up.

For reference:

Jevons Paradox is a concept from economics that describes a counterintuitive phenomenon: as technological improvements make a resource more efficient to use, the total consumption of that resource may increase instead of decrease. This happens because increased efficiency often lowers costs, which can drive up demand.
