Re: I have a question...

From what I understand, AI technology requires unprecedented amounts of energy resources. I don't know why, and it seems like tech companies don't want us to know why or what the endgame is. It looks a lot like unregulated speculation, justified as an arms race of sorts with China.

I've asked people on this comm if they're required to use AI on their jobs, and they're like "yeah but I don't lol". I don't think the majority of users on this comm has any conception of the magnitude of crisis we could possibly be facing, in terms of labor and resource devastation.

But I get it. It's easier to call fans pieces of shit for playing with AI than to consider the big picture. Because the big picture is so disturbing that we haven't even caught up to it with dystopian fiction. It's uncharted territory.

I wouldn't say unprecedented, but it's definitely a lot. We have a broad understanding of why (the current solution to AI shortcomings is, approximately, "throw more computing power at it, that works for some reason", but we don't fully know why the shortcomings are there to begin with -- otherwise we'd just solve them!), and I don't think tech companies exactly like the power consumption (electricity is a cost!) but they care a lot less than they should about its impact.
