I had to take a lot of time to switch from politics to technology to read the first one and I sadly dont have the time to invest for the second one.
Here, the opinion from someone who did AI stuff for a living, before it was cool:
They are saying a boobie picture is not using a lot of energy by itself. Which I think is valid. (Sidenote: Per my understanding of marxism, it isn’t healthy to police yourself anyway as long as you do your best to not harm others and spread the word. Ethical consumption and all.)
My point is that, scaled up to most of the western world, using AI for shit you could use a search engine for, let alone a wiki, is like putting a gun to the head of the earth and pulling the trigger, especially in addition of the reduction in renewables effort and even if one was to errect another couple chernobyls and fukushimas.
Especially in a place like this, where the obvious profit extraction drive of capital is very well understood, it kind of baffles me to see a comment like this.

Generative AI is an apocalypse tool.
