So…about AI’s energy use…
“…to create a five-second video, a newer AI model uses ‘about 3.4 million joules, more than 700 times the energy required to generate a high-quality image’. That's the equivalent of running a microwave for over an hour.”

And now I see a post from @greenpeacenz.bsky.social that they are also putting through under urgency legislation that allows the killing of native wildlife that gets in the way of projects, wtf. This is not democratic, even if you agree with the policy; there is no legitimate need for urgency imho.
