Da gerade viel über den „aufgeblähten Sozialstaat“ geschimpft wird, hier mal eine Erfahrung aus der Praxis: Hab mich mitten in der Nacht wegen eines anaphylaktischen Schocks (Ausschlag inkl. Atemnot) zur Notaufnahme geschleppt. Was ich da erlebt habe, treibt mir immer noch die Tränen in die Augen..

Yesterday, Google released a new report estimating the environmental footprint per Gemini query.

That's very welcome, as lack of any transparency from big tech companies has been a big problem. I hope others follow suit.

I wrote about on this on Substack: hannahritchie.substack.com/p/ai-footpri...
What's the carbon footprint of using ChatGPT or Gemini? [August 2025 update]
A new study from Google suggests its Gemini LLM uses around 0.24 Wh per text query. That's the same energy as using a microwave for one second.

The difference between Ukrainians and US citizens is that Ukrainians fought the Russians and continue to do so, while US citizens let the Russians take over their country without putting up a fight.
