Yeah well the standard degrowth argument against the efficiency camp is that more efficiency has always led to more resource consumption, not less (rebound effect). At least in capitalist markets. The current 'AI' boom, which is very relevant to resource usage, was only possible because integration and energy efficiency of graphics cards became efficient to a degree that was enough for neural networks to do anything meaningful with text. |
