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 training is less energy than AAA game development of which dozens come out each year.
Hmmm, is this true? The fact that AI corpos are talking about standing up brand new power plants just to keep their GPU farms running makes me a little dubious of this claim. I don't remember Ubisoft ever being that desperate for wattage
If you do the math, which I've posted here, you can see it's true. This is a situation where hundreds of SUV drivers are sitting in traffic, see a large bus bellow out a large puff of diesel smoke, and think, "Wow buses are bad for the environment."
People are bad at math. They don't see their individual contributions add up to really bad things.
Damn, I didn't realize video games were so bad. I guess we should ban both, then. Whether for AI or Gran Turismo, people just shouldn't have a graphics card newer than 2008.
