Now, include the environmental costs of some of these tools, and whether they're a) running at a loss or not in order to gain market share, and b) whether they're the tools people are even using.

Do we still come out ahead? Are the minutes saved - if there are truly any - actually saved, or just shoveled onto someone else's plate as environmental damage?

What's the big picture here? Because society honestly should not give a flying fuck if your job becomes slightly easier at the cost of everybody else.
