I think anti-ai people should find something better than water to complain about. its too hard to explain to people why a billion gpus might need water ("isn't water bad for computers", "the water just gets recycled" ect), and honestly I don't think I fully get it. Talking about the electricity and CO2 might be easier, or job losses, or x-risk, but water is too abstract.
- gaws 5mo agoAccess to drinkable water is pretty important.
- muwtyhg 5mo agoExcept for it's so un-abstract, AOC literally has a JAR OF IT to demonstrate part of the issue. People understand they don't want their drinking water to look like the water in the jar. That is about as un-abstract as you can get. It makes the issue very real. This isn't even about excess water use, it's about water pollution. If you think you'd get wider consensus while talking about CO2, which is so abstract that we have a climate change denialism faction running the government, you're being naive.
