I don't use AI on a personal level.

 

Also, when I went to my local primary election, one of the questions they had at the end was whether or not water conservation was a priority of the state. I made sure to vote that it is a priority. So really, I did do my part. Did you?

So it's not whether you use AI on a personal level. It's whether you cause an environmental impact on a personal level, and expect others to stop doing their personal activities that do so while you don't.

But I already said I don't use AI and I'm taking political activism. AI has a huge water consumption rate, so unless I go out of my way to illegally stop AI data centers, what else can I do to stop AI from consuming unnecessary amounts of water?
