Self-powered thinking - are you gen AI sober ?

I got to know Luc Julia through the excellent Arte series called “Silicon Fucking Valley”. Luc Julia is Chief Scientist Officer at Renault, co-inventor of Siri and so French in many respects. His last book “IA génératives, pas créatives. L'intelligence artificielle n'existe (toujours) pas” acts like an ice-bucket to make you reconsider the generative AI hype. I stumbled upon an interesting parallel (on page 168) between self-powered commuting and self-powered thinking. The idea : tomorrow, we’ll be asked to do a wise usage of generative AI (because it is so resource intensive) the way we are asked to do a wise usage of our cars today (because it's bad for the environment).
