On the AI Bubble.
The real reason users don't understand the environmental cost of LLMs and the like is the fact the fiscal cost is completely hidden from them.
It doesn't cost pence per thousands of tokens as you are charged it costs multiple pounds.
The tab is picked up by the VCs who are gambling billions on each product annually and expect 90% of them to fail.
The small investors don't expect 90% of their investments to fail.
This is DotCom 2 - electric boogaloo.
