Yes, but computers, typewriters, and calculators had the ability to produce useful and aesthetically pleasing things while not destroying the planet in the process. I know, people will use it for things like this regardless, but there is no good excuse for doing so due to the enormous downsides.
Yes, the energy needs currently are absurd, but I’m sure the earliest building & room-filling computers were the same — while we were far less conscious of the energy consumption at the time. Things improved eventually, and this likely will as well. I agree it shouldn’t be used nearly as much as it is being pushed in its current form, but the reality is that it will still be used nonetheless.
I’m sure similar was said about computers vs typewriters, calculators, etc. You’re not wrong, but the more expedient path tends to win out in the end.

To a point, I don’t disagree. Reality does reality things, however - whether people like it or not. Otherwise we wouldn’t be having this conversation.
I’m not disputing that they will do these things, I’m just stating very good reasons why they should not.
