"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.

Really? Because Claude is already pretty fucking expensive for something that hasn't been monetized...
Wait until investor money dries up and they start demanding a return on their investment.
You'll see how truly expensive buying the entire planet's RAM (and other electronics) production capacity is. While simultaneously burning more energy than the entire state where their data centers are located.
All that shit is not at all cheap.
Wait until you see how much that Claude subscription costs Anthropic...
For you maybe. Not for a company.
Enterprise pays by the token instead of paying a monthly subscription, so it's even more expensive for them than it is for single users.
