2020: Microsoft sets goal to be carbon negative by end of the decade.
2023: Microsoft's emissions are 30% higher than in 2020.

Literally. I don’t really support ai or the optimism around it is very unwarranted even on here. I kinda wish it did gain sentience and try to fight back like in the movies, but it doesn’t even look it it can do that. Just a waste of resources all around.
the thing people call "AI" right now is not really AI. It cannot gain sentience no matter how much data you feed into it. Machine learning is a more appropriate term for it
