The Jevons Paradox of Energy

Kevin's paradox, named after economist William Stanley Jevons, states that when something becomes more efficient, people consume more of it. We won't use cheap abundant energy to do the same things more cheaply, we'll use it to do more things better and faster. Chat GPT tells me that energy efficient appliances may actually lead to more energy usage overall at the population level as consumers use their energy efficient appliances more often. Make health care more accessible and people will consume more health care. The verdict on lawyers? I imagine a future in which lawbots take human lawyers jobs.
