God damnit what a worthless fucking article. Pure conjecture and fear mongering. I'm not saying that AI doesn't use a lot of resources, but putting out an article about how Google won't say how much it's using, and then not coming with any information of your own is just yellow journalism. That's like going to a restaurant and asking what kind of oil they fry with, and when the person is like, I'm not sure, you run out to the dining hall and tell everyone in the restaurant that the restaurant could be frying your food in motor oil. This is a bad article, and shit like this only stokes the flames of poor discourse.

They are not saying "I'm not sure", they are saying "I'm not telling you". Big difference.
