Europe Economics has 'compared' the energy usage of AI translation and human translation. The numbers are a nonsense – AI is not some green saviour who vastly outbids us wasteful, gluttonous human translators (how dare we need feeding?!). Here's the take-down: www.loekalization.com/blog/blog/20...

Interesting! It strikes me also that the human energy cost is pretty incompressible (unless we take drastic measures 💀) and the humans not used for translation would just use the same energy on other office tasks, whereas AI energy use is an add-on.
