First-of-its-kind US bill would address the environmental costs of the technology, but there’s a long way to go.

one assessment suggests that ChatGPT, the chatbot created by OpenAI in San Francisco, California, is already consuming the energy of 33,000 homes. It’s estimated that a search driven by generative AI uses four to five times the energy of a conventional web search. Within years, large AI systems are likely to need as much energy as entire nations.

    Last week you were advocating in favor of mobs burning self-driving cars if they were “pissed off” by them.

    That is a scurrilous misrepresentation of what I said I said and has nothing to do with AI. Irrelevant and ironic for someone who criticized me for making personal attacks.

    You banned AI-generated art from the @tenforward community you mod.

    I am not the only mod. It was a group decision because AI in that specific community is both lazy and, more importantly, gets Star Trek wrong virtually every time.

    So neither of those things are evidence and one is essentially both a personal attack and a lie. Come to think of it, both of them are essentially lies since you made it sound like the banning was a unilateral decision rather than a decision reached after a lot of discussion between a team of moderators.

    But hey, do as you say, not as you do, right?

      You… you literally asked for this. Your previous commented ended with “Please demonstrate that to be true.” You asked for it to be demonstrated, so I demonstrated, and now you’re angry that I did so.

      The thread was here if anyone wants to look at the full context. Archive.is link.

      But hey, do as you say, not as you do, right?

      I’m rapidly losing track. Are you now against bringing up what people do in other threads and communities when you argue with them?

        Ah, you mean the thread where I explicitly said they were a PUBLIC MENACE and not just because people were pissed off? As you can see right in your link?

        And just like this time, you were making personal attacks by lying about what I said to make me look bad. Except this time you did it in a really silly way.
