This seems like a waste of time to me when you could instead focus on Coal or things that matter

Do you have a source for the streaming v AI power consumption thing?
I don't want to be an ass, just genuinely curious.
When I run jellyfin and stream something from my home server, it draws 35 watts. If I run an ai model on my GPU, it draws way more than that.
I can't remember where I first saw it, I quickly found this

Maybe not the best source, but tl:dr one ChatGPT prompt uses ~3watts including the training.
10min of 4k video streaming uses significantly more than a lot of prompts
But most people don't stream in 4k
Maybe not, but streaming an hour of 1080p also uses a lot of resources compared to AI
