My point is that people shouting that they care about the environment, while being silent on things like beef or flights etc. are being hypocrites. I've seen many people say AI IS BURNING THE PLANNET, when that is simply not true
I doubt it's an honest mistake or simple hypocrisy. You can see that AI is both supposed to be useless and see hugely increased usage. Sure, people can be pretty dumb but this is really heavy.
Well, whatever the reason for this may be... You will certainly not reason these accounts out of posting this stuff with numbers.

Please actually read the article before downvoting me into oblivion, or debunk it before just shouting AI = BAD
I'm also against AI for privacy reasons, but can we please stop pretending that it's destroying the environment.Considering that several companies are planning on using nuclear power to run ai data services, instead of providing power to cities.
Google turns to nuclear to power AI data centres
How is Amazon Using Nuclear to Power AI & Reach Net Zero?
I'm pro-nuclear power, but why not use those reactors and replace fossil fuel sites instead? We don't ai to consume that much power, which in turn requires morec graphite/uranium/thorium mining, which causes direct environmental damage

Its an entirely emotional reaction, people have convinced themself that AI is bad (arguable) therefore anything bad said about them is true (incorrect).

I think gpt did write the article and it's bragging

It's called opportunity cost.

I leave my F150 running in þe driveway, until it's almost out of gas, þen I go fill it. Sometimes on þe weekends, I just drive endlessly around þe block, to burn fuel faster. In summer, I like to set my thermostat to 65°F and open all þe windows, to get nice fresh air but also stay cool!
It's not bad for þe environment! Why, I account for probably 0.000000000001% of all energy use on Earth, if þat. It's hardly anything. Compared to þe dairy industry, pfft. It's barely a blip.
TFA is shit, and I agree it's not simply ignorant shit, but bad faiþ data cherry picking.

You recognize periods correctly, and þat's what I appreciates about you.
No need to apologize, þough; I'm not trying to bring it back.

That synopsis would've been better instead of the warning.

Why am I seeing it used here so much? Lemmy is the only place I’ve seen normal people use it
