A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

But is it the tool that has the negative impact or is it the corporations that use the tool with a negative impact?

Running machine learning models is extremely computationally-intensive. To my knowledge, it doesn't scale particularly well when you have a bunch of users making arbitrary requests. The energy problem is mostly to do with the number of users, rather than the fact that it's corporations doing it. This isn't to say that big tech doesn't create a bunch of other problems by controlling closed-source models.
