Comment on What do you think happens if I stop using AI for a month?

  Is it for day to day stuff or for structuring essays/writing code? If it’s the former, then you can probably expect feeling the cognitive weight of thinking/researching. 🤷

  I’ll look for a resource, cuz idk off the top of my head, but some article did the math on a “Google search” vs the same inquiry using AI. Because the servers running AI are a lot more intense, a regular search consumed a few ounces of water vs AI was something like several gallons. I could be off, so lemme see what I can find.

  And by consumed I meant used for cooling as the inquiry caused a spike in heat from the energy used.
