"Google's former chief Eric Schmidt thinks we shouldn't let AI's ballooning power consumption worry us, because putting AI to work on climate change issues will be our best shot at solving them."
With the current AI electricity consumption, I'm not so sure about that. I hope to be proven wrong, though.

Turns out the climate goals were another scheme run by a select few to superimpose a certain set of "values" on humanity. Bill Gates can excuse AI for it of course because they own the agenda.
like the few people we have in the fields are enough to ask all the questions and do all the handywork.
Unless we radically change what "ai" is (right now, it's just a prediction engine based on our own published knowledge, so at best, it can only come up with average results), "ai" won't save us from anything.
And yes, I put "ai" in quotes because the 'a' part is correct, but the 'i' leaves much to be desired.
