I thought this crazy energy consumption shit would cool off a bit after assholes stopped bitcoin mining.
Glad AI stepped up so we can generate bad art and prose while buttfucking the planet
The planet will be alright. It will be lush green in a few million years when humans no longer exist.
The current ecosystem, though.... yeah. Buttfucked.
That doesn't sound crass enough to grasp the full extend of the development. AI will take all of the energy. E v e r y t h I n g.
There won't be a planet once there is a Dyson sphere. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyson_sphere
I'll be dead by then.
And in the end, the planet will be gone with or without AI. The sun will consume it at some point.
