  • The environmental impact is interesting, if an AI search being as environmentally impactful as 10 Google searches is true.

    I don’t know about you, but it often takes a number of Google searches for me to find the right information, whereas with AI and Google combined I usually get the info I need in 1/2 Google searches.

    That means that, based on my personal experience, AI is probably more environmentally efficient at getting me the correct info than google search alone.







  • Many of the recent protests about climate change have been less direct and more about stirring up controversy to force the public to actually think about their decisions.

    My hat off to them as so far this style of protest has been working and has resulted in many of us pushing for better climate control.

    You’re right this isn’t going to stop companies, but even if you disagreed with them it puts climate change in your conscious mind. Even if that simply means you’ll try to make slightly more climate friendly decisions moving forwards, that’s a win.

    Personally I don’t know if I agree with the technique, but I do feel like it has been working in terms of making people discuss this topic more.
