  And the power their employees need to drive to work?

  And the power for all the computers they used growing up?

  And the power to make those computers?

  And the power Intel used inventing the microprocessor?!

  And the power the entire telephone grid used while AT&T developed the transistor?!?!

  Still a drop in the bucket compared to people taking flights to go on vacation.

  If you’re not angry at people taking flights, you shouldn’t be angry at AI for environmental reasons.

  There are plenty of other reasons to hate AI.
