Made this to know about the hate. Comment the reason and downvote.
Edit: I thought lemmy would be different and people here will educate one rather than biting. But your downvotes proved that everyone is a dick here too.
The problem there is the immense power and water consumption of data centers and apparently their noise too for the neighborhoods. I have no doubts that AI usage will just grow in the future regardless of that, just like similar concerns never stopped cars, red meat, air conditioners, airplanes, plastic, …you name it…

That’s the point. If you don’t live nearby, is it ethical to support something that causes trouble to other people? It applies to anything, not just AI.
Spoiler: the world does not seem to care much about that and too bad for who is affected. Rarely there are even form of compensations.
As you said, its not just ai. People are affecting by global warming from the vehicle pollution. So everyone is hating cars and drivers now?
