I'm more-or-less agreed with what I think you probably mean, but you're going to have to be more specific than that. What does "should" mean, is it morally wrong or just likely to lead to bad results? What does AI mean, does it include anything with a neutral net? Or even the formal logic systems which were popular in the middle of the last century?

You’re totally right, I was trying to word it in a way that was in line with the survey results since the meme wasn’t so clear. But also I totally should have explained more since I complain about others not explaining enough all the time.

What I meant by AI was LLMs specifically.

While image generation is bad, it’s actually much less energy intensive and massive data centers are not being built for it. The problem currently is solely LLMs.
