Idgaf if you don’t want to write essays for school. I don’t care if you don’t want to write corporate emails yourself. I don’t care if you can’t draw well, I don’t care if you can’t write well, I don’t care if you just really really want to talk to your favorite fictional character but don’t want to RP with a real person because you have social anxiety or whatever

If you’re still regularly using generative ai, chatgpt or midjourney or character.ai or literally whatever the fuck, im personally blaming you when my utility prices start going up.

Why would utility prices go up because of ai?

(I am not defending the usage of generative AI/ChatGPT/Character.ai etc etc i am very much against it – I am just curious as to the correlation between using it and utility price surge please don’t come at me this is a genuine question)

Happy to help.

ChatGPT uses so much energy that the US is literally reversing course on coal and gas usage to make up for it. In Santa Clara, for example, data centers used 60% of the ENTIRE CITY’S electricity.

ChatGPT uses 1-3 bottles of water for cooling for every query you put into it. This is FRESH WATER, which is evaporated and eventually mostly returns to the ocean, effectively removing a lot of it from our already dwindling fresh water supply on the planet. It also consumes 17 THOUSAND TIMES more electricity than the average American home.

The AI boom wastes so much electricity that we are very immediately risking US cities having to have rolling blackouts just to keep up with the energy demands, as early as NEXT YEAR

Gen AI’s water usage is projected to hit 6.6 BILLION meters cubed by 2027

More AI use = more data centers = power drain on local cities = gas, electricity, and water utility prices rise because all of our resources are being funneled into a machine that makes garbage

in mesopotamia there were no ‘cover letters’ or ‘curriculum vitaes’. there were just, pots.

And copper ingots. Very high quality ingots from a very reputable merchant

#tumblr’s dedication to dragging ea-nasir from across history is one of my fave things about this hellsite

#somewhere in the afterlife #ea-nasir is gaining power #and he has no idea why

Y’know, that’s a really good point. Are we sure we want to be giving the worst businessman in known history more power in the afterlife?!

Yes, because when Trump dies and thinks he’s going to be king shit in the afterlife, ea-nasir is going to one-shot him with a shitty copper ingot upside his empty orange fucking head

Each Reblog adds another copper ingot to ea-nasir’s afterlife pile. Each like improves his aim.
