The "climate" cares little about carbon intensity of labor or dollars. It cares about absolute tons of green house gases in the atmostphere and if you use more to produce more you still use more.

You should always assume these that benefit most from the technological forefront think they can outrun the output of climate change or any of the outputs.

It generally is called "effective altruism", eg, techno jesus will solve whatever problems creating techno jesus creates.
