Albert Carter @albertcarter.bsky.social · 14/10/2025Yes, what I do has energy and emissions costs. That's a tiny fraction of emissions created by **$4.6 TRILLION in fossil fuels** I use text. Energy-wise, one big text chat = 0.002% of one second of AI video.

Albert Carter @albertcarter.bsky.social · 08/01/2025Banks will collude on all sorts of things - not on solving the climate crisis though.

Albert Carter @albertcarter.bsky.social · 10/12/2024@matt-levine.bsky.social - Your empty voting piece got me thinking. What if someone's not financially motivated and they'd like to borrow stock simply to vote. Empty voting might sometimes be illegal, but what about paying for votes? 110
