    Yeah big AI needs to not be a thing. Small, focused, FOS, and local AI seems like a future with an okay compromise. I say as a very anti-AI person, but for those that use AI, that seems to be what they’re doing, in my vicinity.

        It does, but less energy, and it distributes it worldwide rather than destroy the ecosystems where their data centers are located.
