@tauon @zebo @chalkllate @eri more generally, the structure of the platform we're having this conversation on is, at present, much more power-hungry per user than a centralized one. [berk.es] i think that we definitely shouldn't ignore the environmental impacts of the services that we're using, but, if you'd like to do that, we need to stop laser-focusing on someone's image captioning bot out of blind hatred of the AI boom-bubble and try to figure out how to reduce the inherent waste of a structure that requires all of our posts to be copied across hundreds or even thousands of servers, many of which pay no attention at all to their climate impact.
