It felt friendly. As for electricity apparently bitcoin has been more costly but may not be any more:

AI Overview
Currently, Bitcoin mining and AI data centers consume significant amounts of electricity, but AI data centers are projected to surpass Bitcoin mining in energy consumption by the end of 2025. While Bitcoin mining currently consumes a substantial amount of electricity, the rapid growth and increasing demands of AI models are expected to drive a larger increase in energy consumption within data centers

AI could consume more power than Bitcoin by the end of 2025

Researchers forecast rising electricity demand from AI despite efficiency gains.

Both i guess are here to stay so can only hope A1 will improve energy efficiencies in every way.
