> It's not like AI replaced anything you mentioned.

I mean it's true it hasn't replaced anything the OP mentioned, but it has definitely replaced parts of the compute that I would normally use for e.g. searching.



But do you now spend less time on the computer?


If people are activating Google's servers less, that's some energy saved. I don't know how it compares, but I guess OpenAI aren't running a live bidding war with advertisers on every request.

Instead of google's server people are accessing OpenAi servers, which wastes even more power. How is that any better?
