I just want to point out that the insane "several steel foundries" worth of energy waste are used in training the bots, and individual requests are, by comparison, much cheaper.
Mind you AI "art" is bullshit and AI "artists" are proof that more people need to be shoved into lockers, but we don't need misinformation to hate AI and AI bros. It's plenty hatable with just the truth.
100% this and the narrative that OP is promoting serves to shift the blame onto the consumer, when in fact AI-companies are not profitable and only works because investors and the US government are willing to funnel billions into them.
There’s bots pushing this narrative en masse because the tech billionaires are lobbying for monopolizing control and access of AI. OP is either a bot, or was fooled into buying the propaganda.
