Yes but I don't consider most of them to be a problem.

No I only spend time thinking about actual important things.
I spend hours/days of my time designing table schemas, protocols, standards, conventions at work to make sure the decisions are as future proof as possible.

Yes but i am thinking about all datacenters, AI datacenters are same as meta datacenters or netflix etc. Everyone wants theyr private netflix account to watch films and movies and post nonsense on socials but AI that actually helps is the problem... sure. I think that eco maniacs and everyone who is against AI should first consider not using any aps/servers and then they can talk
