The recent trend of AI-generated action figures on LinkedIn is capturing attention, but experts warn of hidden environmental costs. Created using ChatGPT's image generator, these figures require substantial computing power, contributing significantly to carbon emissions. Corpora.ai founder Melo Morris emphasizes that the casual use of such tools reflects a disconnection from their true environmental impact. Studies reveal that generating images demands double the energy compared to text generation. As energy consumption from data centers is expected to surge, the sustainability of AI innovations is under scrutiny. Users are encouraged to consider the ecological implications before joining the trend.
