That should be enough to worry anybody.
From the guy who said 640Kb is enough for anyone…
640kW should be enough for anyone.
I have to admit, this one took me a minute 🙂
Wait, is that a random number, or the actual scale of the power draw we’re talking about?
'Cause that’s fuck-all when we’re talking about industrial level power draw.
I originally had MW but changed it to be more in line with the supposed original quote.
Bill Gates says the massive power draw required for AI processing is nothing to worry about as AI will ultimately identify ways to help cut power consumption and drive the transition to sustainable energy.
We already know how
Yeah, this is one of the many things that annoys me about AI discourse.
“We can use it to solve climate change!”
We already technically know how to solve climate change, but politics makes doing that impossible.
And, no, AI can’t “fix” politics. We’re going to have to figure that out by ourselves.
Climate scientists: “do these things to fix climate change”
Everyone: “but that’s HAAARD and I don’t wanna!”
AI developers: create AI
Climate scientists: “AI is drawing massive power accelerating climate change, we need to stop that”
Everyone: “but it can tell us how to fix climate change so it’s going to be okay!”
AI climate model: “do these same things to fix climate change”
Everyone: “but that’s HAAARD and I don’t wanna!”Yeah, I can’t see any way this could possibly fail…
but now we have a scapegoat
In a way AI refusing to recommend using so much computing power on LLMs could well be the first sign of actual intelligence.
Ai told my power company to tell us to stop using energy during the day beucase ai needs the power to do the power co.pqnies jobs
Sure lets burn all the oil to figure out how to not burn all the oil.
Well as long as Bill says it’s cool, I guess I don’t have to form my own opinion
We should at least hear what Ja Rule has to say
I’d prefer to hear 50’s opinion over Ja Rule
Breaking: Rich tech guy thinks that the energy draw from rich tech projects is nothing to worry about.
Mr anti climate change says not to worry when it benefits him.
Fuck bill gates, fucking nepo-baby
Bill Gates shouldn’t worry about people wanting to make a tent from his skin.
Can I worry about the fact the most serious AI’s are owned by large companies, and that they are being taught to replace artists, writers and creatives?
What a sad fucking dystopia we live in.
As he counts his money.
If he was counting his money in $100 bills it would still take him about 40 years,
Edit: assuming he counts 1 $100 bill per second
Ricky says Bill Gates needs to shut the fuck up. You have thousands of times more money than any human will ever need leave the rest of us alone you fucking demon.
Of all the celebrity billionaire parasites this one is the one I hate the most. At least Elon and Bezos has the decency to show us what scumbags they are… they don’t call Gates “No.1 Sugar Daddy To The PR industry” for nothing.
oh okay
Alright, but if I end up getting stuffed in a goo-filled pod so the AI can suck my energy out through a massive plug in the back of my head, I’m gonna be pretty upset.
It’s not going to be in the back of your head.
Bill gates accepts your terms
Okay thanks Bill, I won’t.
Actually frees up some time on the old to-do list!
Look out Saturday, cuz here comes Millhouse!
Fuck it. Gun it at the brick wall. Jerry’s rigging up an emergency break as we speak. Don’t mind that the last piece to said break may be missing.
- Man who will probably die before we hit the wall
