    I wonder just how many AI models are smart enough to respond to questions about the energy crisis partly by saying ‘turn me off’…

    Back when bitcoin mining was all the rage, we had server farms setting up their own power… perhaps it would be in the best interest for AI datacenters to run their own power as well, all renewable. A good investment in cutting that power bill.

      There’s no need to require that, as long as server farms (and other big energy users) pay the full cost (including environmental externalities) of their energy use.
