Okay, but there is some reason why you personally are still spending electrons posting on the internet and not, presumably, entertaining yourself by rolling coal, and it's probably because the amount of energy you're using to browse and post on HN seems trivial to you. Does the energy use differential between Python and C++ seem important enough to always pick C++ for everything? What I'm saying is that casual LLM use is also essentially trivial, and scolding people for using querying ChatGPT when you wouldn't scold people for, say, making a dozen Google searches or watching a Netflix show or taking a long shower or driving to the mall, is quite silly and a waste of time. Similarly, there's a reason why doctors will tell you to worry more about your cigarette habit than almost any other bad habits you have, because it's so much more likely to kill you that it practically demands to be prioritized.
