Just like with plastic waste, it isn’t random people making Gemini uwu once in a while that wastes a significant amount of water/energy. It’s the corporations submitting billions of LLM requests that’s consuming most of it.
Every comment on lemmy will eventually be used to train an LLM so if we really want a clear conscience, we should all stop putting anything on the internet

Really it’s the training that’s the biggest resource drain. Requests don’t require nearly as much compute power.
If you can’t beat them, join them! /s
Fuck AI.
