    Yeah, this is one of the many things that annoys me about AI discourse.

    “We can use it to solve climate change!”

    We already technically know how to solve climate change, but politics makes doing that impossible.

    And, no, AI can’t “fix” politics. We’re going to have to figure that out by ourselves.

      Climate scientists: “do these things to fix climate change”
      Everyone: “but that’s HAAARD and I don’t wanna!”
      AI developers: create AI
      Climate scientists: “AI is drawing massive power accelerating climate change, we need to stop that”
      Everyone: “but it can tell us how to fix climate change so it’s going to be okay!”
      AI climate model: “do these same things to fix climate change”
      Everyone: “but that’s HAAARD and I don’t wanna!”

      Yeah, I can’t see any way this could possibly fail…
