AI has the free time to study and be artistic. Not us. We must pay to exist.

What rent does the AI pay? Nothing.

No internet bill, no transportation bill, no phone bill, no food bill, no Healthcare/insurance bill.

AI also isn't studying or being artistic. It has no real awareness of the concepts it's seemingly learning, at least not yet. AI as of right now is basically just statistical analysis of human-made information and art and predictive modelling of how a human might respond to a given prompt.

AI as of right now

AI for the forseeable future

No need to mince words. Far too much of this terrible hype surrounding it is built on pure speculation of a future that we have no hard evidence is approaching. Just bold claims by people financially invested in selling the hype.

Someday, if it can sustain itself, it would need to pay for a living.

Right now, someone wants to have an AI. The person pays for it like a pet. But its too expensive, so it needs to give something in return.

We will see if it really benefited the energy costs and internet costs for those Companies who use intense amount of resources for AI.

you cant exploit ai. you cant whip a gpu into performing better, and you cant pressure algorithms into being smarter for the same amount of money invested to develop and run it.

the (capitalist) system works by exploiting us. machines will throw a monkey wrench in it if it can truly replace our labour.

internet and housing do cost money for those running the model, as does the "food" (electricity). healthcare is achieved by taking it behind the barn, transportation is unnecessary, as are phones.
