I agree, however, AI will be solving fusion generation shortly. At that point, EV's might have a small chance of being useful.

Yes and no, the power generation is one part of the equation.
In near future, we will be laughing on the solar and windmills and working hard to safely getting rid of them!
Nukes can solve our energy demands pretty fast.
Fusion has enormous potential, but they are working on it for 60 years.
I still believe they will solve it some day!
What I see as major problem is the transmission.
Present day grid is absolutely inadequate for that kind of energy, and I do not see any practical ways it can be solved.
Transferring 4MW to a car is HUGE problem.
And I am not sure how much power is delivered to trucks?!
Diesel has even bigger energy content and diesel the flow in truck stops may be even bigger (10MW?, more?)
The world biggest power line is 1.1 MV line in China, transferring up to 12 GW of power.
That’s 50 millions of homes, but only about 1000 Trucks at truck stops!
