3volver@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•The ugly truth behind ChatGPT: AI is guzzling resources at planet-eating ratesEnglish0·1 year agothe infrastructure used by the “cloud” accounts for more global greenhouse emissions than commercial flights
This comparison is bad. Commercial flights don’t use electricity, they use jet fuel, pumping fumes directly into the atmosphere. I don’t see a single complaint about HOW electricity is produced. I just read about how there’s too much solar power in California. A serious disconnect in the logic blaming AI for pollution when we should be blaming the way we produce electricity.

Robots have battery capacity limitations, they get “tired” in a different way. Your claim is true if you invent a battery that never runs out of power.
3volver@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Boston Dynamics introduces a fully electric humanoid robot that “exceeds human performance”English0·1 year agoI’d go further to argue that it’s very necessary for robots to have even more mobility such as wheels to take advantage of momentum and increase efficiency. There’s a reason the wheel was invented, things like bicycles, wheelbarrows, etc.
The ANYmal wheeled legged robot is an example of that.

I’m also referring to emissions, just redirecting focus about HOW electricity is produced. Also, AI is not pointless, that’s a bad claim. You have a comprehension issue.
