Energy use is only bad if the user is doing something you disagree with. When crypto miners were in the news, it was terrible because crypto mining "provides no value" (to the people doing the criticizing).

Now that AI is using massive energy and the usual nags are coming out to criticize it, suddenly HN is promulgating the glorious benefits of such excess energy use. Pot meet kettle. Human nature never changes
