Code Generation May Drive Half of AI Inference by 2035

💡Code generation could reshape inference capacity, energy budgets, and infrastructure planning over the next decade.
⚡ 30-Second TL;DR
What Changed
ABI Research expects AI inference workloads to overtake training workloads in 2033.
Why It Matters
The forecast suggests that production inference efficiency, rather than model training alone, will become a central infrastructure and cost challenge. Organizations building coding assistants should plan for sustained token demand, capacity expansion, and power constraints.
What To Do Next
Instrument your code-generation serving stack with vLLM metrics to measure tokens per request, GPU utilization, and peak power before expanding capacity.
Key Points
- •ABI Research expects AI inference workloads to overtake training workloads in 2033.
- •Code generation is projected to represent half of AI inference demand by 2035.
- •AI inference power consumption is forecast to grow to 46 gigawatts by 2035.
