interesting…
I got the correct number of times.
I chuckled
Awesome. My only critique is that microwave ovens actually work really well in their niche. I can’t say the same for LLMs.
I know too many PhD’s for that to impress me
Right? I still remember the bollocking I got from a professor in front of a class about the awful state of classroom equipment, all because the man couldn’t find the PHD (push here, dummy) button to turn the computer on…
No matter what they say LLMs are not intelligent. AI is a a scam. It’s predictive algorithms on an incredible scale which in the right applications can be really amazing tools but this promise of agi, sentience and the claims of thoughts, feelings, emotions, hallucinations and yes intelligence… absolutely just a scam.
Geriatric senile PhD on too many painkillers whose area of expertise was a pseudoscience like phrenology before it was rejected, maybe.
You can tell this is marketing fluff, because GPT could already provide “PhD-level expertise” - just in a hit-and-miss fashion that you couldn’t rely upon without some other form of verification. So how is this different?
At carbon footprint levels approaching the US military coming soon!
You’re on the Internet. Should we shut that off as well?
How are you any better with coming online to shit post and look at memes.
The datacenters used to run websites and social media are not any better.
Great Whataboutism.
Great that you know it’s true and this is all you can say
Are you trying to say that making a series of http requests to view a website is even remotely equivalent in energy usage compared to running inference with an llm model???
Yes since you’re not the only one doing it. The impact on climate is substantial in both cases and people are absolute hypocrites for not realizing this. You can’t come online and shit post all day about AI without realizing you’re using services that also contribute to The same if not worse impact
Someone using a lightbulb isn’t a hypocrite if they say it is irresponsible to use the resources to power a computer, and someone using the internet isn’t a hypocrite if they say the absurdly higher resource usage of llm inference is irresponsible.
You can call people hypocrites all day if you pretend that scale isn’t a concept, but you’re obviously wrong.
No I’m not wrong and it is hypocritical. It is a great point that highlights this issue isn’t about resources. It’s hype and panic pushed to certain groups. Just like any other. I can find the same hypocrisy on the right fot many of their issues
Saying you’re right over and over again without having a logical reason doesn’t make you right lol
Saying I’m wrong without a logical reason doesn’t make you right
