Someone using a lightbulb isn't a hypocrite if they say it is irresponsible to use the resources to power a computer, and someone using the internet isn't a hypocrite if they say the absurdly higher resource usage of llm inference is irresponsible.
You can call people hypocrites all day if you pretend that scale isn't a concept, but you're obviously wrong.
