Running AI doesn’t - training an AI is where the real power hungry stuff happens
Comment on Ecosia plants 200 million trees

They integrated AI chat which is using OpenAI technology. So they’re paying for ChatGPT API instead of spending this money on trees? And doesn’t running generative AI consume a lot of electricity?

I am not against it. I don’t want to miss out on AI to support this search engine. It’s quite helpful to me, and I assume many others. I think this search engine should compete with other search engines so that more users use it. I am already a fan of their Ecosia Chat; the interface is damn fast and the responses are even faster. Bing Chat is just awful, it’s blood slow: both the interface and the text generation.
