AI power growth is projected to grow exponentially for a service a lot of people view as morally reprehensible and actively harmful
Spencer Weart identified the dangers of global warming in the 50s, we ignored the warnings and now people and entire species are dying. Excuse us for trying to prevent accelerating the problem

And this is a lie altman is telling to get more money.
It’s not scaling. GPT-5 is making it more obvious, but the ML research community has known this for some time.

So is AI useless and just a bubble that will pop, or will it explode exponentially?
It can’t be both.
When talking about the environment people say it will explode and burn the planet, but in the same breath they will say it’s useless and just a bubble

Oh sweetie. This your first bubble?

it will grow exponentially until it pops and then will progress normally in a way that is actually useful. that is what the term "bubble" means in this context.

I never said useless. Mustard Gas is really useful, State Sponsored propaganda is useful. Usefulness does not equate to goodness as much as capitalist will try to convince you otherwise

I’m down with the anti-beef and anti-Bitcoin sentiment, I can even get into the anti-travel argument (we need high speed rail) but saying AI is less harmful than those? Please.

Lol how is this a fair comparison? 10 mins of watching 4k vs 1 AI question does not seem equivalent at all. Like you could change the quantities and make the comparison look as bad as you want. Why not compare 1 min of 4k video vs asking AI 1,000 questions? Why not compare 1 hr of 4k video to 10 AI questions? When you’re changing the variables around between comparisons like that then the comparison is worthless.
Besides that, the environmentally damaging part of AI isn’t asking it questions, it’s training the models themselves. Training AI uses huge resource consuming supercomputers and can take days.

I searched for how much data 4k streaming used and my browser gave me an AI-generated answer! Now I feel bad.

Is training the Model and constantly scrubbing the Net included in that chart? I doubt it is.

I’m actually interested to read about this but I’m not going there to do it. Got anything better?

Genuinely curious IDK much about them

how about watching youtube at 1080p?

Probably still worse than a couple of AI prompts

Reproducing is the most substantial drain to the environment, and people with AI girl/boyfriends tend to excel at avoiding that.

People need to understand that water usage, plastic pollution, Co2 generation and power usage are all different things and just saying "tHe EnViRoNmEnT" isn't helpful. Some of these things matter more than others.
