Wether we like it or not AI is here to stay, and in 20-30 years, it’ll be as embedded in our lives as much as computers and smartphones.

Idiots in this thread keep forgetting there’s a climate crisis and that we won’t be able to live the lives we live now forever 🤷♀️

It’s not that we don’t have a climate crisis. We do, and I’m not an advocate for AI. It’s just…mankind. I’m just stating what I think is going to happen, “whether we like it or not”.

Estimates for chatgpt usage per query are on the order of 20-50 Wh, which is about the same as playing a demaging game on a gaming pc for a few minutes. Local models are significantly less.
