Dude, push the anti-meat shit elsewhere. AI is something that is causing new, extreme damage for literally no benefit. You're not going to convince anyone by attacking other movements.
Also, I'm a vegetarian, go bark up a different tree.
The point isn't being anti-meat, it's perspective. The water consumption of AI is completely negligible compared to literally every other facet of our consumption and really isn't worth using to demonstrate how bad AI is.
AI's consumption of electricity, on the other hand...
It's a tangible example that you can use to demonstrate the absolute waste to someone. Yeah, it's less water waste than electricity waste, but people can't visualize the amount of electricity being used and have that be a concrete thing in their mind. Pouring out a gallon of water is an immediately identifiable thing. And the point is to make people associate the absolute reckless waste with the use of ai.
Wait, people can’t visualize the amount of electricity used for something? Oh, right, not everyone is an electrical engineer.
