And tech carries out churning out artificial intelligence systems that consumes way more energy than genuine human intelligence while being worse off at the same tasks most of the time
- somsak2 3y agoTech isn't even close to being among the top sectors contributing to energy consumption
- bufferoverflow 3y agoI'd like to see that energy calculation. AI could write a whole book in hours or a beautiful image in seconds consuming a few hundred watts of the TPU. It would take a human weeks/months to write a book and days/week to paint a beautiful images. Also consuming at least ~100 watts idle.
- gremlinsinc 3y agoalso ai agent scientists in a simulated lab could solve big problems like climate change. AI might be the only thing that can save us, if it don't kill us.
- badtension 3y agoClimate change is not a technological problem at this point. We know how to solve it, we just don't do it.

- bufferoverflow 3y agoIt is a technological problem, and will be solved as such. We "don't do it", because the currently offered solutions are insane. Expecting people to reduce their consumption will just not work. It's an uphill battle against human nature. The solutions to global warming will likely look like a bunch of mirrors in the deserts or in space.
- gdilla 3y agosure, but AI will also produce a lot of useless outputs too.
