Yes, I'm extremely climate conscious and change my behavior around many things that I think have particularly high climate externalities. But ultimately, most of the people I know who are really concerned about this engage in extremely high externality behavior (flights, beef eating, etc.) regularly without even thinking about it. AI doesn't even come close and beyond that potentially enables a lot of solutions.

Don't be so sure, AI companies are working around the clock to make sure they're up there with the others.

Beef consumption wasn't a problem in the 70s either.
