Late, but goddamn I love this hairy Norwegian (@ketanjoshi.co): "You could easily generate a Substack post highlighting how a single Grok query is a tiny fraction of your daily energy diet, but it would be no consolation to the communities of colour that are choking on this feature’s fumes."
The only reason that the tech industry is so aggressively keen to individualise the climate impact of an AI query is because they don't want anyone to look at how much they are shoving it down our fucking throats. Where it lands in our bodies afterward isn't a concern for them.
The fact that so many otherwise decent - well... uhh... ok... - climate folk are being successfully taken on this ride is a fucking indictment of the potential for otherwise clever people to display critical thought.
Wow. He’s a machine! Sure he isn’t AI?
Lord help us all if he is.
