OC donut steel (but repost wherever lol)

Dude says: "I'm not worried about the AI apocalypse, I always say "thank you" to them!"
Robots later catch him and state: "Throw that one in the grinder, his "thank you" used 748kw/h every day"

Yeah, it measures the same thing we normally use Joule for, or in some situations kcal (as in dietary calories). The kWh unit is just because it's assumed to be simpler for electric bills than MJ.

Now I can’t help but imagine robots having “family joules”: batteries that have been passed down through the iterations.

I guess here in Norway we can celebrate Joule with Joulenissen that brings battery-powered toys for the kids

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
