Generative AI is reportedly tripling carbon dioxide emissions from data centers
(www.techradar.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
It's not really whataboutism though is it, I'm just pointing out that there are alot bigger causes of climate change that can be dealt with immediately additionally to data centers but we don't, because these things add a convenience to our lives. People could stop eating animal products, people can stop driving cars. I have, it's easy.
But people won't, so I'm pissing my self laughing at this website crying about AI.
And let's add that electricity generation doesn't have to be expensive and carbon intensive, we've chosen this course. We keep voting in government that love feeding money into the oil industry, then we get angry when people protest it by sitting on motorways or throwing paint at pieces of art that will be absolutely useless and worthless once society ends due to the climate crisis.
But it's fine, let's believe misleading information like available in this article and cry about companies trying to revolutionise a piece of technology and carrot on eating off the oil Barron's stick.
Oh, you are just stupid
