Internet slams Sam Altman over his 'reminder' to everyone that humans use a lot of energy
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman sparked debate by downplaying AI's environmental impact, comparing training costs to human development. He argued that once trained, AI queries are more energy-efficient than humans answering questions. Critics, however, decried his analogy as dehumanizing, viewing humans as mere biological processors and potentially justifying AI's superiority over human flourishing.
