To those of us that use and understand this technology, it's laughable to think that AI can replace an actual human, but I've seen enough people unable to detect obviously reckless AI recommendations floated to leadership that I'm afraid of the near future.

So far I haven't seen any rational or critical thinking in this area. So, it's nice to see a little glimmer of hope here, that someone might at least say 'wtf are we doing?' The power consumption of these useless data centres is slap in the face to all of us with efficient cars, houses full of shitty LED lightbulbs, and low flush toilets. We shouldn't let them burn the planet to insert automatically incorrect text, fucked up faces and extra fingers.
