"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.

Yea, most of the 450W will be converted into heat, and only a small amount actually goes to computing. Imagine if our brains had that kind of inefficiency, our skulls would overheat from thinking too hard

Actually isn't 100% of an electrical device's energy output converted into heat?

Yes, computers are resistive loads

Does that mean if I am cold, running a 600 watt computer is the same as having a 600 watt space heater going?

Pretty much
