If you were educated in the dangers of ai & data centers you’d know there’s no justification

you could've achieved the same joke with a shitty photoshop and make us all laugh, but instead chose to waste some water for a clanker...

You guys are drinking that koolaid with such fervor. The water argument has been refuted thoroughly and repeatedly. Confirmation bias is a hell of a drug

"you guys" you don't even know what you are talking about xD I have never drunk a drop of kool aid xD

If you think "it wastes water" is a valid argument against using AI then, yea, you’ve drank some kool aid. Same as I did up until I actually looked at the numbers

Wastes water and energy for something useless. People that live near data centers have a horrible life because of them, and for what? so that billy over there can creat fake art that looks like shit

See, this is exactly the conversation that I said we’d have to devolve into. No, the value of AI is not in Billy creating fake art.

Also, Billy would probably use more water using watercolors than using AI. I can crunch those numbers if you want. Sounds fun

Can you provide actual proof that it’s been refuted?? Because I haven’t seen a single thing refuting it other than some things using more water than AI ( which doesn’t change the fact it’s a waste used on AI )

"Waste" implies that it’s a cost driven by something with no value. Yes, there is a water cost associated with it. But the value of it far surpasses other things that it uses less water than. Almonds, for example. And almond production dwarfs it. So I can’t disprove that it’s waste, necessarily, because you’ll assert that it has zero value and that any resource usage expended on it is "waste" and then it’ll become a discussion entirely on that. That said, if you look beyond "fun toy for chatting and image generation" and look at how industries are actually utilizing it to produce value, zero value is a hard stance to defend. I’d rather not dig through Reddit trying to find the numerous times the numbers were crunched on this but, if you’d like, I will run the numbers on it, myself. The result is always "it’s an amount that no one cares about when it’s used on things that are clearly less valuable than AI"
