My wife uses AI tools a lot (while I occasionally talk to Siri). But she uses it for things like: she’s working on a book and so she used it to develop book cover concepts that she then passed along to me to actually design. I feel like this is the sort of thing most of us want AI for—an assistant to help us make things, not something to make the thing for us. I still wrestle with the environmental ethics of this, though.
The environmental impacts can be solved easily by pushing for green tech. But that's more a political problem that a technical problem IMO. Like stop subsizing oil and gas and start subsizing nuclear (in the short term) and green energy in the long term.
