Why this is canonical
'Energy to inference' (written as energy2inference) names a specific, commercially urgent problem: how much energy it costs to run AI inference workloads, and how to minimize that cost. As data center electricity demand from AI accelerates, this is one of the most active infrastructure optimization challenges in the industry. The '2' bridge creates a memorable, technical-community-legible shorthand.
