AI will deplete our natural resources if leaders don’t act now
"As businesses embrace AI, they not only inherit its energy burden but also contribute to a broader cycle of ecological strain. Both are situated in a geopolitical spider net where money and power tend to take precedence over stability and shared quality of life."
"Ironically, the stronger our artificial assets become, the more our natural assets are jeopardized."

@gerrymcgovern I think the article correctly states the costs and problems of AI. However the author does not question the limitations of AI, including "creative solutions" for the climate that AI might find, which is speculative, if not propagandistic.
The actions described to limit costs rely heavily in individual choices, not collective or regulatory action which might be more effective in my view.
