AI and world changing electric use
2 years ago

Greetings reader and welcome
Like me, I bet you have heard of AI and how it is changing the world. . . and how it is introducing new world effects that may be dangerous. But those dangers, real or imagined, are in the near future. Right now, today, AI is creating a new world issue. Do you know how much climate change training AI or using AI causes because of the enormous amounts of electricity it uses? Neither did I. I stumbled upon this TED talk on the subject. It is something to think about. The world is changing and we are going along for the ride. It is nice to be informed what is happening.
AI is dangerous, but not for the reasons you think

I think we can expect our limited resources to go into great waves of endless robo spam and scam bots that make it rather difficult to connect with real people and find human-made content. Bummer.
BTW, I have been using Bing Image Generation (they use DALL-E and it is free to use). I have been investigating developing a look for a fursuit. Bing with AI has been a great help allowing me to explore various looks.
Clients occasionally use it as a method of demonstrating their art com idea and then I'll draw something inspired by it with a correct number of fingers :P
