Oh wow, that's so cool. Definitely worth the $2 trillion spent on AI so far.

Also the knock off effects like computer parts quadrupling in price, the ecological damage, fucking over local power grids, and speed running propaganda.

Don't forget further entrenchment of state and corporate power over our lives!

I've seen billboards saying "many new datacenters are designed to reuse water" like... OK? that's ONE aspect of it. you're still installing natural gas turbines and diesel generators and taking enormous amounts of electricity...

Not to mention 'many' is vague and probably doesn't apply to the one who paid for the billboard or it would say which one. It is like having a sign that says 'many chefs wash their hands'.

Cool, but the one roght here is the most important one to me at this moment.

"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.
