I am so sick of these "AI is worse than climate change" takes. This one in particular claims AI will have a bigger impact than the climate crisis *in the next 2 years*.
For context, one estimate places total damage wrought by weather disasters in 2022 at $360 billion, and that the heat wave alone killed 40,000 people. As El Niño takes effect, that will no doubt get worse.
