We're speaking recently a lot about ecology. I wonder how much CO2 is emitted during such a task, as additional cost to the cloud. I'm concerned, because greedy companies will happily replace humans with AI and they will probably plant a few trees to show how they care. But energy does not come from the sun, at least not always and not everywhere... And speaking with AI customer specialist that is motivated to reject my healthcare bills, working for my insurance company is one of the darkest future views...

If we feel like we've really "hit the ceiling" RE efficiency, then that's a different story, but I don't think anyone believes this at this time.
