quote: AI agentic Internet traffic will obviously VASTLY exceed human usage. Not a close call at all. Cloudflare’s forecast is accurate. https://x.com/aaronburnett/status/2086538843323236435 | For context, Global bandwidth is somewhere between 2-8 Pbps (2,000-8,000 Tbps) depending on if your measuring fiber public backhaul (like international fiber) or all public and private connections. 100,000 V3 Starlinks equals 100 Pbps 10x-50x the total bandwidth available today. If Starlinks V4s are 5x more capable we are looking at 50x-250x more bandwidth than world has today over the next 10 years. This may sounds like a supply shock but remember ~2B people don’t have regular access to the internet today, and we are connecting robots (digital and physical agents) to the internet at an accelerating pace. Distributed sensor data collection (on and off planet) is growing. On top of that individual internet usage does steadily increasing. In 10 years we’re probably going to move two orders of magnitude more information per second around than we do today.
