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. Two knights in armor, transporting a large, spherical water container on wheels, come by and say, "The King wishes to make more avatars of himself as a Ghibli character."
In the background, a castle sits enthroned on a hill. The cartoon illustrates the excessive water consumption required for AI model queries.

The King's Art – War and Peas – Webcomic

The King's Ghibli avatars come at a cost: excessive water usage. A sharp comic by War and Peas on AI's environmental impact!

You scroll past these comics to escape stress, but on the other side, creators are drowning in it. Platforms profit from our work, but we see none of it.

Patreon is the difference between creating out of love and creating out of desperation.

If you've ever laughed, smiled, or felt less alone because of our comics, know this: Your support means the world to us.

Thank you for being part of the story and helping us keep creating what we love.
