    When it comes to “use fully renewable energy”, keep in mind that as long as we aren’t 100% renewable that energy demand is being made up elsewhere with fossil fuels.

    I’d still much rather have that than this, but even all the “normal” grid power that is being used on chatbots has got to come from somewhere.
