@venturetwins Probably the most efficient counterpoint you can make — animal agriculture dwarfs AI's water footprint by orders of magnitude on any per-calorie or per-output metric.
@venturetwins And even the water "consumption" for beef is a bogus claim. These people counted the rain water that the grass cows eat needs to grow. It's just having an agenda and framing
@venturetwins That's a clever way to turn the tables and highlight the bigger picture of water usage
@venturetwins Stop coping and start pushing for better architecture efficiency

@venturetwins hilarious to see people justifying growth with flawed analogies
@venturetwins nice way to deflect from infra scaling issues
Next time someone tries to shame me for AI water use, I’m just going to ask if they eat meat https://x.com/venturetwins/status/2076401760596598899/photo/1
(I’ve been a vegetarian for 15 years, it’s going to be tough to outdo me on this one)
