I think it’s kinda awesome that the entire tech world knows that all the energy needed to power these bullshit AIs will ultimately destroy the environment and they are uniformly like “Yeah so what.”
When someone engineers a machine literally designed to generate and commoditize mediocrity... I'm not expecting that person to be overly concerned with their value to society.
Someone else mentioned that part of the scam will be after these things flop, all the tech companies can put out huge announcements about how much they’ve lowered their emissions.
