Per AxbomAI bros keep saying that AI will solve the climate crisis. Nobody knows what this means. Humankind has known for 50 years what is needed to combat climate change.
Part of that solution is NOT to build things like AI, that increase energy use, lead to freshwater shortages and contribute to a massive growth of e-waste.

After almost a year of censorship, Reuters republishes ‘Hack for Hire’ exposé
Last November, Reuters published an extensive report — backed by interviews, internal communications and public documents — on Appin, an Indian cybersecurity training firm.
