    True, and that’s how everyone who is able should use AI, but OpenAI’s models are in the trillion parameter range. That’s 2-3 orders of magnitude more than what you can reasonably run yourself

      This is still orders of magnitude less than what it takes to run an EV, which are an eco-friendly form of carbrained transportation. Especially if you live in an area where the power source is renewable. On that note, it looks to me like AI is finally going to be the impetus to get the U.S. to invest in and switch to nuclear power – isn’t that altogether a good thing for the environment?
