Probably not as much as you think: https://www.sustainabilitybynumbers.com/p/ai-energy-demand

You are better off worrying about your car use and your home heating/cooling efficiency, all of which are significantly worse for energy use.

Untradable carbon tax (or carbon price for people who hate the T word) is needed.
Right - free to you maybe.
