"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.

There's not enough resources in the world to keep our current economic output while also switching to renewables.

Well, you're wrong. For example in France almost all electricity comes from mix of nuclear and renewable sources.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electricity_sector_in_France

Around 70% nuclear, 11% hydro and only like 7,5% from fossil (rest are solar, wind and biomass)

Switching transportation to electric is much more difficult but it's happening. 10 years ago, electric cars just weren't a thing.

So, you're just ignoring industry then... ok.
