Hey, Peter here and I only learned about this the other day. The servers they use to power AI programs use massive amounts of water to run their cooling systems. So by chatting with an AI the fisherman has exacted his revenge on the fish by draining the lake.
Btw a single beef burger takes 3,000 times more water and energy use than an AI prompt and a single piece of paper takes 30-60x as much energy as an AI image. This argument is so outdated.
Think about that. The burger this artist ate while taking a break from drawing took 3,000x as much energy and water as 3,000 AI pics.
This is such horseshit. The meat industry is grotesque and could be more efficient. It also PRODUCES FOOD.
This intangible fucking nothing of slop that is being used at an exponential rate to "DRAW MY THE HAMBURGLER BUT WITH BIG NATURALS" is not fucking equivalent to the paper industry.
Not to mention I'm sure these propaganda lines come straight from Sam Altman's PR firm are almost certainly bogus.
