What are your resons to boycott ecosia?
I don't accept AI implementation as a green product, and when the "green AI" they advertise is a special, low complexity opt-IN model I feel like I'm being bamboozled on two separate levels.
Your comment reads as if you don't want them to offer AI, but if they do offer it then you want it to be either Opt-out or no opt out, and that you would prefer it to be a resource hungry AI at that. Is that what you meant to say? Because otherwise I don't understand.
I don't want them to greenwash AI. So as long as a self-professed green company provides a claimed green AI I don't agree with them.
