What’s heavier, a kilogram of steel or a kilogram of feathers?

That’s right, a kilogram of steel.

Let’s jump on the information superhighway!

The snoot would droop.

I admit I didn’t know that Mistral or Photoshop claim to use no copyrighted material, but I am loathe to support Adobe as you seem to correctly imply.

On the topic of power usage, we can assume 1Gw. But 300 million people using the same model as was trained via that inital 1Gw input seems like a stretch for as much as OpenAI / releases models / tweaks. And the root of my problem with the power draw is that it’s not coming from clean or renewal sources so it’s not just the 1Gw of usage, but all the pollution that comes with it. Not to mention the datacenters using water for evap cooling and taking water from towns.

I think your best bet is either AO3 or tumblr.

This is why I am a fan of the work of the Four Thieves Vinegar collective. they are making instructions on how to make at home versions of some of the most critical chemicals and medicines.

The problem I see with that is even though it’s local (which is a huge step towards FOSS ownership instead of private hidden control), it still takes tons of energy to train the model itself. Not to mention the IP theft which is a whole 'nother issue.

Ideally, I was thinking nuclear or renewables. But the way things are now, I don’t want it all. Just wishful thinking on my part.

Good. hopefully it will keep AI out of here. The only way I would be cool with AI is if it took 1000% less resources, and wasn’t powered by companies building datacenters that produce power in teh most polluting way.

This was a really good read.

The only issue i have with this is the distance in the bottom left. Tell me you don’t live in a suburb or rural community without telling me.

Honestly, this would make my day. I still remember the first time a girl said she liked my hair, ahd that was like 15 years ago.
