This whole thing is so sad. Dude comes out with “I’m addicted to chatting with LLMs” and people pile on him for what? Not saving a glass of water while 100$ says all yall still eat meat and do a billion times worse than burning some LLM tokens? Disgusting responses all around.

In general the AI ludites are so tiring. I wish this energy would be spent on something actually impactful like murdering animals for entertainment - yes thats your cheese burger - but these addicts are quick to defend their own addiction while sneer at other significantly less harmful ones.

Gonna go burn more tokens just for your sake now.

The most impressive recent AI advances are almost entirely around efficiency. A lot of organizations have been releasing models that use much less resources. There are some local models you can run entirely on a phone now. It’s all due to Rampocalypse, and the tightening of resources, which is forcing teams to develop against lower resource architecture

Consumer tech is getting more expensive for the first time in my entire (shockingly long) life. I get a real sinking feeling in my gut, feels like a sign of a tipping point. On the other hand, I kind of miss the days when getting more and more out of the same hardware was the magical part. It always felt like when we lost that, we lost a huge part of our potential.
