“#NVIDIA has sold the picks and shovels to AI gold rush seekers for so many years now that they've started to seem invulnerable. Yet even Nvidia is learning lessons about the prohibitive growing cost of AI.

"The cost of compute is far beyond the costs of the employees," one Nvidia executive told Axios in April. So even Nvidia is vulnerable to #tokenmaxxing. And that's why the hottest thing in AI these days is hiring #humans, because they're getting to be cheaper than AI — and are needed for quality control on AI's output anyway.”

The AI vibe shift is real: Why the backlash is growing

As 'tokenmaxxing' dies out, Silicon Valley is having second thoughts.

#Humanity depends on #humans. Human hands, human deeds, human thoughts and feelings. Not #AI.

@Bad @ChrisMayLA6 #Economic #violence is hardly a new #phenomenon, though, is it? It has been with us for a very long time. There are those who argue that #Palaeolithic & #Mesolithic #societies were #egalitarian & #pacific - practically #Utopian, indeed (I very much doubt the truth of this thesis) - but #humans have definitely organised themselves in increasingly #hierarchic & #inegalitarian societies from the #Neolithic onwards.

The future of the web is weirdly human

The future of the web may end up looking a lot less like documents, and a lot more like the things it's trying to describe.

3 #gods do not get along. #1-God, #creator and #immortality. #2-the #devil, a created #enemy. #3-YOU, the created #mortal god, #humans. Everything you were taught in #school is a lie. If you follow me; I #expect that you are #interested in #reading the #book.

Rereading "The World Without Us" by Alan Weisman I came across this, which speaks to so much of the violence going on in the world.

"Murderous, mutual loathing between tribes was no more explicable, or complicated, than the genocidal urges of chimpanzees—a fact of nature that we humans, vainly or disingenuously, pretend our codes of civilization transcend."

Highest recommendation for this book.

Listening to Humans (John Green: We’re Not Merely a Catastrophe): https://art19.com/shows/humans/episodes/104f0c1d-4f1b-475b-8b25-fd67b939e4d6

John disapproves of his brother's new podcast entirely, but is happy to be here. They talk about why John's worried about Hank, why being in favor of humans is now counter-cultural, if John's seminary training might have helped the brothers' internet success, and what Mark Twain has to do with any of it.
