LoL. Guess I can just get rid of phone’s processor then, huh?
And again, you link to an outdated study. Because the new data shows the use declining, so it wouldn’t help your fear mongering.
A Phone can’t do anything. It can send/receive and the datacenter does the work. Surely everyone understands this.
A modern AI data center have already shot right past 200 Terrawatt hours and are on track to double again in the next two years.
People can’t be this blind.

Reality is “fear mongering” is it? I agree.

If it were reality, you’d have some recent data. Might as well make projections on computer power use by starting with the ENIAC, and then you can claim computers are consuming more than our current energy output.

A phone can do a lot. Much much more than ENIAC era supercomputer (I think you’ll have to get pretty close to the end of the previous century to find a _super_computer

I’ve run small models (a few Gb in size) on my steam deck. It gives reasonably fast responses (faster than a person would type).
I know that they’re far from state-of-the art, but they do work and I know that the Steam Deck is not going to be using much power.
