#Trump will direct federal agencies to loosen various restrictions on #coal mining, leasing & exports. He will instruct the #Interior Dept to resume coal leasing on millions of acres of #PublicLands, & he will order the #Energy Dept & other agencies to study whether more coal-fired #power plants can supply #electricity for #ArtificialIntelligence #DataCenters.

3 things about Franklin Ritch’s THE ARTIFICE GIRL [2022]

1. “I thought this was your web?”
2. In the corner, the top half of a mannequin, draped in plastic.
3. Reciting his passcode, he stumbles; she holds up four fingers.

The image shows a person standing in front of a large screen that displays a close-up of a young girl. The screen dominates the background with a white backdrop. The young girl has long, straight light brown hair, and she is looking directly at the viewer with a neutral expression. Her features are prominently displayed on the screen. In the foreground, there is a person with short brown hair, wearing a yellow shirt, looking at the screen. The lighting is focused on the screen, causing the rest of the scene to be more shadowed.

I’ve been thinking a lot about one of these concerns: the excessive use of energy and water needed to satisfy the insatiable thirst of big techs and startups for more money.

What is the environmental cost of outsourcing thankless tasks to ChatGPT, like writing reports that no one reads or generating a happy birthday image for that aunt you haven’t spoken to in six years, in the family group chat?

Perhaps the most popular metric for this dilemma of the 2020s is the 500 ml water bottle for every ~50 questions to ChatGPT.

Is that a lot? A little? Is the trade-off worth it? As with everything in life, the answer is: “it depends.”
