Please read what I’ve written here, it’s long but I think it’s time you knew (if you don’t already) I have only, this week, found out what Ai is doing to our planet and it’s terrifying!
Pollution and waste, the byproduct of the data centres is destroying wildlife and people’s standards of living in neighbourhoods close to them, that’s bad enough, but the amount of water used to cool them down is causing a water crisis on our planet. The WHO has now declared that we are entering an era of water bankruptcy for the first time. Not in third world countries but worldwide. (Add to that what the water companies have done to our rivers and seas) 😡
I didn’t like Ai because it is stealing artists work and making people less creative. That was bad enough. I worry about our kids future and who will bother to learn anything anymore, that was bad enough. Then there’s the fact that it’s mining everyone’s data in new trends like the latest one for people to have a caricature of themselves surrounded by things they love. It’s tricking people into giving them all their data, that was bad enough but this week I’ve delved a bit deeper and frankly what I’ve discovered had made me mad!
It’s destroying our beautiful planet, that we get just one of, there is no planet B! The data centres are mainly powered by fossil fuels and that’s bad enough, but they are using all of our precious water to cool them down. We’re entering a water crisis on our planet driven by Ai data centres. One Ai image takes as much power to generate as it takes to fully charge a phone. Multiply that by the millions of people using it daily and the numbers are too much for my brain to handle. Also, these companies have made deals with energy suppliers so their bills won’t rise, but guess what, ours will! So we will in the not so distant future be paying more for energy and water, and it’s all because of the use of Ai.
I get tha Ai can help you write an email or apply for a job or help you to write something important, i get it.
But is it worth it? Just because it’s a new technology doesn’t mean it’s a good one.
It sources its information from scanning online data and it’s wrong 61% of the time. So it’s not even a credible source.
And what you ask it in private can be used against you, have you asked it medical advice? Well, It’s wrong more than half of the time but it now knows your fears, your data should private. Not sold on to medicine companies.
Please guys, start to think. And if you’re only finding this out now like I only found out this week, are you fuming? Cos I am!!!
I guess the question is, do you want to save our planet? Or do you want help writing things or making cute images?
IT IS NOT WORTH IT!! And also they will ramp up the monthly cost the more dependant you become on it.
If you want to learn how to make adverts and how to make cute pictures yourself I will teach you. I will put a free class on helping you to do this things that you are asking Ai to do for you. I’m just asking you to think.
Please think, our planet guys!! Beautiful Mother Earth is suffering.
And pray that they are not planning a data centre anywhere near you. (I found out that Warrington are getting one) because then you will see the damage it does, but then it’s too late.
It’s time to boycott Ai.
IT IS NOT WORTH IT!
Message me if you’d like me to teach you how to run a business without Ai. I’m doing it. It is possible
AI’s water use in 2025 matched the bottled water industry worldwide.
