Rohan Paul(@rohanpaul_ai):AI is Jevons paradox territory. After GPT-5.6 Luna's token price fell by 10x, token consumption jumped by more than 10x. The real AI demand shock has barely started. Only 17.8% of the world’s working-age population was using generative AI in Q1 2026. (For Microsoft Research Report) Jevons will get much more interesting when the other 82% shows up.

Jevons paradox in action: GPT-5.6 Luna has 10x'd in token volume since its price on OpenRouter dropped by a factor of 10. The week isn't over, so we're projecting >10x. Also surpassing GLM 5.2:
