AI tools have transformed many lives, for better or worse. The water-thirsty and energy-hungry data centres are allegedly drying up groundwater and other freshwater reserves, while also consuming copious amounts of electricity to stay powered on. Recently, OpenAI's CEO also sparked a controversy by saying that RAM sticks belong to the AI data centres, calling those powering personal devices a “waste”. This particular aspect has created a shortage of DRAM and NAND chips in the market, pushing up the prices of most consumer electronics. Now, AI is also seemingly changing the way users write. According to a report, writers are changing their writing styles, fearing false plagiarism accusations.
