Yes, obviously AI is emitting way too much. It shouldn't even be producing 0.2% of global emissions, let alone 2%. My main grievance is that no one ever talks about improving industrial and agricultural processes even though they produce around 29% of emissions and 20% of emissions respectively.

If you don't farm, people will starve. If you don't use AI, billionaires will starve.

Sadly, majority of Midwest is corn & it's not even corn to feed us.

yes, corn's biggest uses are feeding live stock and making ethanol, the second use, making ethanol it is quite bad at it compares to sugar cane, afaik for live stock it is very cheap for the ammount of protein it has and can diggested by pretty any livestock

Right, but there is the realistic option where we farm more efficiently.

Because as it is right now, we are farming and we are still starving. Food production is not a problem, In fact we overproduce.

So let's be more efficient with our food production which will also starve billionaires.

"overproduction" is a myth to raise prices.

if we produce less, prices rise because there's less supply and people would have to pay more for it.
