A little more time and a lot more money. But the savings will be huge. The savings will make the current era of extravagant burning piles of money look like a sound investment. You'll be glad you got in on the ground floor...
We do need a little more time, though. And money.
Also, water. We’ll take all of that please, just pipe it right over to our spot in the desert. We’ll need some more money with that, of course.
Everyone complains about water consumption, energy use, and pollution of the ai yet fail to compare the use to its human counterparts
If you want me to list the myriad ways that I want humanity to use less water, I can. This just happens to be top of the list because it has no fucking value at all and is expected to use even more than the others.
I’m not really sure what you’re trying to say here, other than you use chatgpt and want to stan for it. Ask it to compare the water use to human counterparts, whatever you mean by that. Or really, don’t because the water that would waste is certainly not worth it.
No I just want less people and less a.i. lol
Oh, haha, carry on then.
Just one more datacenter, bro!
I'm pleased to report that all those other promised utopia frameworks turned out perfect, and aren't in any way still a huge daily pain in the ass. I expect no less from this time around. Computers are finally smart. It's great.
It's the AI that is prone to delusions, or was that just me?
I won't be surprised if AI ends up so expensive that they will cost more than actual developers. But as experience has shown, C-Suites prefer expensive and bloated tech than providing developers autonomy, good salaries and good career plans. They see us just as rebellious cogs in the machine.
