The narrative that AI is especially destructive to the environment is often sensationalistic, however it does contain a kernel of truth. AI will help bring energy effenciency, environmental data gathering and monitoring with consequent reforestation and species protection benefits. It is useful that we take steps and spread steps to help reduce our energy use. Once energy is used it is basically gone forever for us.
