Here is the full chat, but if you want just read the main points of this extract below (relevant links are also given): How did you find the cofounders? I…

and what we can do for sustainable AI — What’s the problem Everybody loved ChatGPT, but not so many people are aware of the tremendous damage from the point of view of the environment.
