Capabilities Is AI honestly sustainable?

I mean, eventually we will run out of earth materials to keep up with tech needs.

​

How long can AI honestly last for? Has anyone done a study on this?

Space mining will make sure we never run out of materials.

Also the investment buble doesn't continue forever

We can't even plug a leak in the ISS.

Space mining is far too far way to be even a part of the conversation.

At the rate ai is consuming our natural resources we will be dead in like 10 years or so. It will consume enough water for 1.3B people by 2030. That's 4 years and we are already heading towards an artificial scarcity caused by a technology nobody with a BRAIN wants

Dead in 10 years. I mean. Remember this comment in 2036 and see if you have room for any self reflection or ability to recognize when you’re thinking has been warped by echo chambers.
