    You conveniently seem to have left this part from your first linked article out of your argument:

    De Vries estimated in the paper that by 2027, the entire AI sector will consume between 85 to 134 terawatt-hours (a billion times a kilowatt-hour) annually.

    “You’re talking about AI electricity consumption potentially being half a percent of global electricity consumption by 2027,” de Vries told The Verge. “I think that’s a pretty significant number.”





  • Essentially, when you boil it down, you can turn this into “it’s provable that individual X has possession of NFT identifier x,y,z”. It’s kind of like how you can have the deed to a piece of property in your desk, but that doesn’t prevent 15 people from squatting on it.

    It isn’t even that. It’s is identifying which drawer in your desk the deed is placed, but there is no guarantee that the drawer contains the deed.
