I just want to point out that the insane “several steel foundries” worth of energy waste are used in training the bots, and individual requests are, by comparison, much cheaper.
Mind you AI “art” is bullshit and AI “artists” are proof that more people need to be shoved into lockers, but we don’t need misinformation to hate AI and AI bros. It’s plenty hatable with just the truth.
Yes, yes, everyone hate the AI, focus on the AI, think only of the AI… We’ll all be put on special trains for meatbag surplus soon enough. Now, back to the AI, citizens. Haaate. Focus. Run on your little wheel, take a nap in your scraps you collected yourself. Shhh…

Interestingly enough, you are correct, and I read about it in the same article that is being depicted in this comic. (MIT’s paper on the subject.)
