i've never looked into it because that wouldn't have ever even been a thought and i've never seen anyone post about that anywhere online until now. all i see is "pay the artist" but it makes sense now.

Hey, appreciate the honesty tbh. I have run into a lot of people IRL who don't really know anything about the environmental impact of AI, or simply don't make the connection until you have the conversation with them. We all have to learn somehow.

TLDR; the AI engine has to search millions of references from its own database learning model based on your prompt and then compiles that into an image or video. When creating a whole music video using AI, you're going to have lots of trial and error which constantly feeds the model data. Plus you have the length aspect. It takes a lot of processing power for a 10 second slop video, so something at this scale in such high quality will be very resource heavy.

But did you not think of *how* the video gets made lol

To piggy back off of this - Generative AI uses a lot of server resources. More technical resources means more power used. More power used means more water needed to cool down the servers. More power + more water = increased resources. When a big ass data center uses up all of these resources, it also concentrates the runoff waste which goes back into the community (See Memphis). Additionally, more power used means a less reliable power-grid. Using generative AI is a death punch to the environment and with that comes the downstream effects that directly impact communities. That being said, I do know that both Azure (microsoft) and Google data centers are aiming to be carbon & water neutral plus powered by renewables by 2030, but I'm not holding my breath... much easier said than done. Plus that's a small sample size of the overall AI data centers. Also pay a fucking artist.
