You cannot buy a decentralised network!

Enjoy your echo chamber.

Irony. She sounds kind of similar to how Manchin and Smyrna are to the Democrats.

“Gore rushed to share the news with the hard-liners who had encouraged her to run for the seat. She expected them to be as relieved and excited as she had been. But she said they were indifferent, even dismissive, because “it didn’t fit the narrative that they were trying to push.””

SNAFU, it’s all sus anymore

Ever heard of “taking a piss”? Apparently you really like drinking piss.

You’re right, there are NO valid opinions, my bad.

“An opinion is a judgment, viewpoint, or statement that is not conclusive, rather than facts, which are true statements.”

It does today…

I am at a loss, you might have to explain that one to me - all I’ve got is either something was sus or Save Union Souls lol

However many years it takes for these LLM fools to wake up, hopefully they can find a way to laugh at themselves for thinking that it was cutting-edge to jam the internet into a fake jellyfish brain and calling it GPT. I haven’t looked recently, but I still haven’t seen anyone talking about neuroglial networks and how they will revolutionize the applications for AI.

There’s a big*** book, but apparently no public takers in the deep neural network space?

Energy consumption has a dark underbelly of rare earth mineral consumption that is often just swept under the rug of shiny new thing. Ooh.

permacompute or bust

All opinions are valid. Not all opinions contain facts. All opinions contain assholes.

Too big to fail.

That is a very valid and reasonable opinion, sorry to see it downvoted.

There will be strong disagreement with you, however, on the case that LLMs are a big enough resource hog to require outright banning for just that reason.

If you are looking for Big Tech hit boxes, try for things like writing laws that require all energy consumption in datacenters to be monitered and reported using established cross-disciplinary methods.

Or getting people to stop buying phones every year. Or banning disposable vapes.

From earth.org: “Data centres are typically considered black box compared to other industries reporting their carbon footprint; thus, while researchers have estimated emissions, there is no explicit figure documenting the total power used by ChatGPT. The rapid growth of the AI sector combined with limited transparency means that the total electricity use and carbon emissions attributed to AI are unknown, and major cloud providers are not providing the necessary information.”

I say to thee, I’m mad as hell, and I can’t take it any more.

How much energy do you think gets used by a computer that costs $700,000 per day to run?
