This makes me want to fucking puke — had a conversation about this yesterday and was met with “AI is here to stay, it’s not going anywhere”. As long as that’s the attitude! 🤬 So frustrating that this is a focus, setting back carbon negative goals, while heat waves are putting people in danger.

I mean, it IS here to stay, and it's NOT going anywhere. But it's also a complete fucking waste of energy to route EVERYTHING through it when most people don't like or want it AND it does a piss-poor job of almost everything.

AI putting strain on power grids, potentially causing cascading outages & increasing electricity cost, puts everyone in danger of being unable to cool themselves during heatwaves. Lower income people will be particularly susceptible if they cannot afford their bills. It is all so irresponsible!

high taxes on AI power use, that is the only real possibility I can see going forward

I can't wait until this fucking bubble pops. AI is a fucking grift almost indistinguishable from cryptocurrency and NTF's; all these technorons have convinced themselves it's somehow a "wave of the future" they're getting ahead of while all the evidence shows generative AI is nothing but a dead end.

“To what end” is my question for these use cases. I’ve seen maybe 5 uses of generative AI that seemed worth it? Hundreds that are no better than existing tech solutions.

Gods below and ever burning, I'm a proponent of nuclear but not like this. Blood and ashes, not like this.

AI data centers must be banned from the power grid- or better yet, destroyed.

the fact that amazon buying a nuclear-powered data center is not the most terrifying thing in that sentence is telling
