@Daojoan b-b-b-but some of us want to know how the developers grandmother harvested the bits and crafted them into tuples by hand for every bit of code I have to study

The worst thing about online learning is that everything has become a video. -
I am devastated by the news that ParMaster has ascended to the VX heavens.@thegibson Parmaster was one of the best. I really enjoyed sitting in the CTF at DC 6 with him.

The "AI uses too much water and electricity" argument isn't completely wrong, but it's aimed at the wrong target.I disagree that curing symptoms is the best we can hope for. Law-as-code works: you build compliance into the architecture, not bolt it on after.
EU AI Act Article 50 transparency can be enforced at the code level: cryptographic audit trails, automatic AI disclosure, immutable records.
Same philosophy I used when authoring redundant networks (now oracle cloud) architecture; You don't write policy to say "please don't crash" you write policy to dictate the requirements.

AI doesn't require water-cooled data centers. Lazy, cost-cutting facility operators do.
The real question we need to be asking: How do we regulate responsible cooling and energy sourcing for data centers?
The nuance-free "ALL AI IS EVIL" approach just hands the people who actually want to cause ecocide an easy win.
