No and it's just a dumb argument. In Microsoft's presentation just a few days ago, they revealed they were planning on running their data centers on completely renewable energy. The fair comparison here is how much resources it takes to raise a person until the age of 25 where they start to contribute to society. And it's also what proportion of these people are actually creating new knowledge which is what we expect these models to be able to do? It's a very small proportion.
