> No, it's from people looking at the insanely massive environmental impact AI has and how it costs dramatically more electricity than standard search engines or such. It's not even close.
lmfao, like I said, people are low information and always ready to be told to grab pitchforks. Just like they will defend one set of rapacious global corporations against another set, and every single one of them feeling absolutely certain that they are too smart to fall for propaganda.
Streaming 4k video and high quality music costs magnitudes of order more resources and electricity than AI queries, and some people do this literally 24 hours a day, on the same devices they use to post handwringing ignorance about a topic they demonstrably know little about, even on a surface level. I'm actually very pragmatic about AI and properly terrified of the real dangers, which is why I find it exasperating to see such emotional and reactionary behavior from so many allegedly progressive and open-minded individuals.
Nintendo are patent trolls, they have a decades long history of awful anti-consumer practices, and I honestly don't care if anyone violates their IPs and makes their poor shareholders a few less billion dollars. Good catch on naming two or three of their lesser known and less-often recycled franchises that aren't quite yet 25 years of age. AI will make it easier than ever for them to pump out more and more versions of the game series we've been enjoying since toddlerhood, since AI will soon have the capability to create all the assets and do almost all the coding. Then they'll have to raise the prices of games to meet the demands of the modern economy. lo and I do mean l.
