  • You’re focusing on their use of AI

    No, I’m focusing on the hypocrisy of calling it green. A lot of other people are focusing on the AI tech though.

    They’re a non-profit company that gives 100% of their profits

    That’s not how non-profit profits work. 100% of the surplus might be invested in green causes but that’s after operating costs, salaries and a plethora of minor expense posts are handled using their profit/income.

    It’s hardly greenwashing.

    If legitimizing polluting technology by saying we’re doing such a great job at combating pollution isn’t green washing, perhaps I’ve misunderstood the term? It was certainly used against the billionaires flying to climate conferences, their argument was that they did such an important job for the environment that they should be able to fly private jets to the meetings. Others called it a green washing of their personal travel arrangements.

    Your complaint just doesn’t make sense.

    That’s OK, I’m not too bothered about being understood by every single person I come in contact with. Sometimes the divide between worldviews is simply too big to try to bridge.
