Eh, it's not like that's not a solvable problem. Electric cars and AC also suffer from the same issue wherein they're as clean or dirty as the electric generation they're connected to.

Hook an AC to a renewable energy source and it's not all that dirty (provided no leaks), AI data centers are the same way.

The problem is is that, for the most part, AI isn't solving any problems. That work isn't accomplishing anything. Have generated images or those Google AI Summaries done anything for you? It's a huge, new energy expense that we don't need right now. Any solar that goes up for an AI data center could have gone to a EVs or HVAC hat currently use fossil fuels. We need to stop using those data centers to produce celebrity deepfakes and start fixing the material science issues of fusion energy.

Not entirely true, there is absolutely a lot of AI going on in science and medicine, it's definitely doing some good for humanity on that front. And thanks to stupid VC investors money chasing unicorns everywhere, it does have a trickle down effect to the actual "good" AI.

It's just that Medicine and Science AI articles aren't money making articles, so you don't see them as much.

That's why I said "for the most part".
