    AI does not use much water. If you believe it does, like this article does, you have fallen for propaganda and lies, ironic in a post calling everyone using AI stupid.

    The main cause of water fear mongering is that one woman’s well was dirty during construction of a data center. First construction is not the center running, and having lived on a well they get dirty for all kinds of reasons.

      You can always tell an AI apologist by how they latch onto the water thing and ignore the electricity, air pollution, noise pollution, etc.

        You could, you know, stop spreading deception about water usage if it bothers you so much when people call out deception about water usage.

        At this point, I almost consider it trolling to bring it up: purposely throw in something incredibly stupid, and then throw a hissy fit when predictably called out on it.

          I, personally, do not bring up the water thing. So you're talking to the wrong person here.
