I think that fact that we're using AI to write emails because we find it hard and AI to summarise emails because we can't be bothered to read them suggests that we should take a look at how we communicate rather than boiling the oceans to have LLMs hallucinate at each other on our behalf.

Unlike actual clouds, which transport life-giving moisture from the seas to the land, the AI cloud sucks up scarce water resources. It shouldn't be called 'The Cloud' it should be called 'The Drought', and we should say "that large language model runs in The Drought" 🏜️

To give you an idea of how inefficient the state of the art in machine learning is, imagine that, in order to train a less-than-competent sales representative for your business, they first have to read every book ever written.

America is so anti-poor that it’s the only place where a mayor will argue it’s completely justified to shoot someone in the head for evading a $2.90 fare only for us to find out two days later that the mayor was stealing literally a million times that amount.

Low Quality FactsSep 23, 2024

Friends, I need your help. I know that Instagram isn't the most popular platform on here, but I recently discovered that I need 10,000 Instagram followers before Meta will start paying me to post all the silly stuff I post on Threads. I am currently 2,347 followers away from that goal.

So to be blunt, if you have an Instagram account and are willing to follow me on there, it would mean the world to me. Here is a link that I hope you will find to be most clickable:

“AI is revitalizing the fossil fuels industry, and big tech has nothing to say for itself”

https://www.bloodinthemachine.com/p/ai-is-revitalizing-the-fossil-fuels

> Now analysts and agencies are quietly revising their decarbonization goals downward, gas and coal plants that were slated for retirement are being kept online, and now utilities are building more gas plants in the first half of 2024 than were built in all of 2020 combined.

Again, a sincere fuck you to everybody who has had a hand in inflating the AI Bubble.

AI is revitalizing the fossil fuels industry, and big tech has nothing to say for itself

Silicon Valley is helping to accelerate the climate crisis in at least 3 major ways
