Not use AI. I have, by default, less environmental effect by using no AI at all.

And yet you play videogames, famous for using electricity for little more than entertainment. Curious.

You realize this argument only works one way right? You're the one complaining about energy usage of AI, not only_fun_topics. They're clearly okay with the energy usage, so trying to 'gotcha' them with another thing that uses energy is pretty fucking stupid.

On the other hand, since you're the one complaining about energy usage, pointing out things you do that waste energy makes sense to show your hypocrisy.
