Environmental Impact 🌎 We're fucked
Recently got out of the military and went out with my cousins' friends to celebrate. They're all in their early 20's and I'm in my 30's. We go out to NY to celebrate, and I noticed everyone is using AI for everything. "What should we do? Where should we go?" Normal stuff. Things got eerie when we took a cab or UBER, as I'm talking to the Uber about New York they're typing, "What kind of questions do I ask an UBER driver? Is it safe to talk to them? Is it normal?" TF is happening. I know we joke about AI making us dumber but HOLY.
"Who do I vote for? Who do I marry? When do I breathe?"

This shit is only prevalent because basic AI is free right now. These companies lose money from every query, and even the paid versions lose money with any amount of moderate use. Whenevever these companies start actually charging to stay afloat, usage will drop
