There’s a reddit bridge to lemmy, if you’re looking for an existing solution. If not it wouldn’t be hard to write one, no. Here is a lemmy library I’ve used a bit before. Or you could just use the raw api. Seems like an easy beginner project to me.

BountifulEggnog [she/her]@hexbear.netto askchapo@hexbear.net•Is AI really burning a forest every time they’re used?English26·3 days agoAdditionally, GPT-3 needs to “drink” (i.e., consume) a 500ml bottle of water for roughly 10 – 50 medium-length responses, depending on when and where it is deployed.
Worth noting that this water usage is mostly from the electricity, making electricity uses water. You are pretty accurate in your assessment and I’m surprised this is an askchapo post rather then an effort post. It is overblown. It honestly strikes me as a distraction from the actual climate polluters. A small reduction of the meat industry would be massively more impactful then stopping all AI models. There’s other criticisms of AI that work better imo.
it also helps how for the last few years they been using more renewable energies, which cut out a lot of the emissions in regards for AI stuff no?
I mean
not really imo. If that electricity could have been redirected to turning off a fossil fuel plant then its still the same “pool” being used. If a datacenter uses 90% renewable but that means the city uses more fossil fuels instead of that renewable, its a wash.
edit: Here’s another link I found when searching around, his math works to 0.3wh for small queries. Obviously consider the source etc etc but I personally don’t see an issue with this calculations. He also covers training and gpu production costs if you are interested (though briefly).

Honestly really annoys me when people feel the need to hide their views like this. This isn’t even something you’d get banned for so idk why you would.
some of you get really upset when you take a fake news post for face value
This is a thing for autistic people though, no? Taking things at face value?
now people’s automatic assumption is to box us all in together like we all have a problem
That’s their fucking problem. If people on this site of all places don’t realize you can’t lump a minority together like that idk what you want from any of us.
the removal of fake news and fake news related content when they’re legitimately posted to the shitposting comms they were explicitly made for.
Chapotraphouse? Because there’s definitely a comm made explicitly for fake news and fake news posts and its not that one. But you are being vague so I can only assume you are talking about the onion link there.
I don’t want to be part of this infantilizing culture where your hand has to be held at all times
No one was forcing you to be? You’re welcome to your own views.
We already have the block function so you can stop seeing the posts you dislike from certain communities and this should be enough to stop seeing the stuff you don’t want to see.
Again, you are being vague so I don’t actually know what you are talking about. If it was the chapotraphouse post, that comm is full of other content. I’m sure everyone upset about fake news posting would be fine if it was posted in the fake news comm, which they can block. If they’re complaining about the fake news comm existing at all yea that’s a bit silly imo.
there are solutions to this that I have already mentioned in this post
My solution would be to have onion/satire headlines tagged as such, with [satire] or similar. What’s wrong with that? What actual harm does it do to make it clear to the reader that what they are reading is a joke and not to be taken as a literal news story when this website is full of actual news?
Good news about what will be up for grabs when that one goes
The entitlement of property owners is honestly unmatched. You aren’t owed a return on investment, literally every year you make it. The fuck. I have never seen another group of investors that acts like spoiled children quite the same way.

That’s super interesting, I didn’t know that. Going to have to look more at that because most of the information I’ve heard has been focused on the impact itself. (I was not really taught this tbf).
I agree with this comment about 90%.
