If only all the billions spent on AI would have been spent on tackling climate protection, we would have clean energy and a ton of new jobs.
Whereas AI is doing the opposite, destroying the planet and taking jobs.
Yeah but AI is aiming at removing workers… So more money for them !
Well worth destroying the world !
At this point we don’t even need to spend billions subsidizing green energy; it’s already cheaper than fossil fuels on the free market. We’re now subsidizing bad shit out of sheer hate and suicidal contrarianism for contrarianism’s sake.
(And blatant corruption and graft. That’s a big reason for the otherwise literally clinically insane fossil fuel subsidies, too.)
I’d say corruption and grift is the actual why, “sheer hate and suicidal contrarianism for contrarianism’s sake” is somehow how it’s successfully sold to the masses.
You can’t recharge a tank on a battle field. Fossil fuels must exist until the conflict between the multipolar world and the rule based world is settled. Bonus points for drying up Iran and opening the northern shipping routes. Also overall, a warmer earth should create more rain.
Problem with any fossil powered equipment in 2026 is that is that it is very easy to detect with cheap IR cameras, which makes it a target for drones, missiles or artillery.
Not with that attitude you can’t

It’s not attitude but availability. Right now gasoline is the best option.
Wish we could… But we can’t reject the argument because we don’t control the story. The guys getting insanely rich from fossil fuels and buying media (and politicians) do. And the majority of people blindly believes everything if they just hear it often enough.
