Date: August 21st, 2025 5:31 PM Author: Jet azn pistol Seems like the solution is pretty obvious. Just make AI a paid-only service and if necessary raise the price enough that only commercially important stuff is viable.

Date: August 21st, 2025 6:33 PM Author: trip garrison newt not sure what this “solves” as it’s not like the power is being given away now and it can be safely assumed that ai cos. aren’t going to pay for it out of the goodness of their hearts forever. regardless, “let’s make sure this unprecedentedly game-changing technology can only be used by those with capital and access” is a pretty shit solution, especially paired with “also let’s make sure energy demand externalities will be borne by the poor.” (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5764696&forum_id=2/en-en/#49201845) |

Date: August 21st, 2025 6:40 PM Author: sadistic laser beams institution Sam Altman said a few months ago that just the question marks people put at the end of prompts and words like “please” at the beginning were costing them tens of millions in electricity. Making it a solely paid service would certainly have an impact, but at what cost to the user?? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5764696&forum_id=2/en-en/#49201876) |

Date: August 21st, 2025 6:42 PM Author: Orchid whorehouse patrolman Wtf kind of question is this, lol. It will cost money just like every other good and service in the economy. It already costs money if you're doing anything that matters other than idle chatter. Every professional who uses AI is already paying for it (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5764696&forum_id=2/en-en/#49201880) |

Date: August 23rd, 2025 10:33 AM Author: The Barrister of Babylon Yeah it will happen though its 180. They'll frame it as "green transition" or "energy independence" but underneath the impulse is transparent: they feel the machines HUNGER.
