@xilebo But it also requires much more energy in order to do so. Energy that otherwise could be used to power a hospital, a kindergarten or a water supply station.

And speaking of water...the AI also requires water for cooling. That water won't be available to other people who might need it for more important things like farming, which they might need in order to avoid starvation. That water could be essential to save life.

Would you rather get the next perfect generated pic or save a family?

@xilebo And that water won't be available for fish either. If there is no longer water for the fishes, why would you need an AI for fishing? And who get's to decide which water is being used for fishing and which is being used to supply people?

Not to mention the elephant in the room:

The AI might be great at fishing but it won't know when to stop fishing, so the fish population can't regenerate itself. It is not sustainable. And the company of the AI will simply move on to the next pond.

@xilebo And last but not least:

While the AI might be great at fishing, it won't recognize if the fish is ill or the water contaminated - which would mean the fish is not safe for human consumption - because the AI has only been trained to fish. It won't care for water quality, food quality, ecological aspects or sustainability and probably neither will the AI company as long as it makes its money by using said AI. Because the company is only accountable to its shareholders, right?
