I worry about the costs from an energy and environmental impact perspective. I love that AI tools make me more productive, but I don't like the side effects.

Environmental impact of ai is greatly overstated. Average person will make bigger positive impact on environment by reducing his meat intake by 25% compared with combined giving up flying and AI use.
