Alt Text: The cartoon illustrates the problem of water use in the AI age: a farmer’s child and his mother are pumping a little water from a well for their daily use.

In the background, a castle sits enthroned on a hill. The cartoon illustrates the excessive water consumption required for AI model queries.
