Nice ..... I look forward to the next generation of AI counter counter measures that will make the internet an even more unbearable mess in order to funnel as much money and control to a small set of idiots that think they can become masters of the universe and own every single penny on the planet.
All the while as we roast to death because all of this will take more resources than the entire energy output of a medium sized country.
I've been thinking about this for a while. Consider how quick LLM's are.
If the amount of energy spent powering your device (without an LLM), is more than using an LLM, then it's probably saving energy.
In all honesty, I've probably saved over 50 hours or more since I started using it about 2 months ago.
Coding has become incredibly efficient, and I'm not suffering through search-engine hell any more.
Edit:
Lemmy when someone uses AI to get a cheap, fast answer: “Noooo, it’s killing the planet!”
Lemmy when someone uses a nuclear reactor to run Doom: Dark Ages on a $20,000 RGB space heater: “Based”
Are you using your PC less hours per day?
Yep, more time for doing home renovations.
