Claim 11: “the industry now processes more than 35 quadrillion AI tokens every month”

DISPUTED

The claim states the industry processes more than 35 quadrillion tokens per month. However, the evidence shows that Google (a major industry leader) processes 3.2 quadrillion tokens per month as of May 2026. There is no evidence supporting a total industry figure of 35 quadrillion; the provided evidence contradicts the scale of the claim.
