It doesn't...

You're just telling everyone that in addition to the social media account, you also don't know what you're talking about.

But that was a safe assumption already.

Large-scale AI deployments pose several environmental concerns. Most AI servers are stored in data centres, which produce electronic waste and can contain toxic chemicals, such as mercury and lead. Data centres consume vast amounts of electricity, creating greenhouse gas emissions. They also require large amounts of water for construction and to cool the electrical components. Global AI demand is expected to consume 4.2-6.6 billion cubic meters of water by 2027, surpassing Denmark’s total annual water withdrawal of 4-6 billion cubic meters

We don't have enough water and clean energy for humans, we can't afford to waste even more because some people are too lazy and ignorant
