AI is a parasite.
So are many idea meat lumps
Are we talking incandescent bulbs or led bulbs?
Strong led or (very) weak incandescent. It’s about 20 Watts (at least, that’s what the popsci meme reports)
I dunno, I get real hungry on days when I have to think a lot
There are probably 2 reasons for this:
-
There’s probably a lot more motor control going on than you would expect when you need to think (writing, fidgeting, etc.).
-
Your brain wants sugars, so when you run out of immediately-available glycogen to break down, you will want to eat more in order to keep thinking. Breaking down fats wont supply energy fast enough (in the short term) to keep complex thought running continuously.
Lead bulbs ofc.
This guy lead bulbs.
Tbf a lot of energy goes into producing the food we consume. But nowhere near what it costs to run this AI garbage.
Win at what?
Yes
Win at being shit.
God creates man.
Man creates god.
Man kills god.
Man creates AI.
AI kills man.
AI destroys earth.
Crocodile people rule the galaxy until the heat death of the universe.

Isn't this how we get the Matrix?
In the matrix humans were used as batteries, not processors. Although that was the original writing before an exec thought the average person would be "confused" by that
Edit: removing my far too serious comment.
Tldr Poe's law, I can't tell if this is a critique of AI, or of AI critics.
Ah yeah don't take shit post too seriously.
For me, this meme was just a Matrix joke.
As much as I think current IA is another bullshit marketing term, we will see when AI has been around for at least a few centuries, I don't think we need thousands of years like brains did.
This is the thing about AI criticism. AI in the LLM sense we know today has been publicly available for a few years, in development for a couple decades. Any criticism about how stupid it is will be irrelevant in 6-12 months. Look at the people trashing AI 2 years ago, how it would constantly hallucinate and produce gibberish code. Now it's a lot better on both regards. In 2 more years, what then? It'll be better. Yes we'll hit the LLM ceiling but there's a lot of fine tuning to be done.
Criticize AI for the environmental effects, the inequality that it's enhancing, how the rich and powerful have access to the AIs that know too much about us. Criticize it for lacking the reality of human composed text. But criticizing it on technical grounds is not the right angle.
FWIW if you asked both an AI and a HS student to crank out an essay on a random topic, the HS student not having studied the topic, the HS student would be the one making more shit up. Human brains have limitations too. AI and human brains aren't directly comparable.
Look at the people trashing AI 2 years ago, how it would constantly hallucinate and produce gibberish code.
In my experience, this is absolutely still the case..
Also you can run most models on a wide range of fuels. Sucrose, glucose, maltose, ethanol, molybdenum disulfide, small rocks, some grass. Really anything.
Yes I think the point is just a shit ton more than the human brain, generally.
