    So you’re pro ai datacenter?? You think llms are a disruptive technology, and not a way for the billionaires to become trillionaires?

        If I were you, I’d look up what a bubble is in economic terms. You sure as fuck can’t eat anything in a data center, and when people realize how stupid this push has been to put llms in everything, you’re gonna wish you put up more of a fight against them.

          Holy shit. Remember the dotcom bubble. Being a bubble isn’t the argument you think it is.

            The… Dotcom bubble where investors ignored revenue and profibility which resulted in a market crash and huge economic downturn? The dotcom bubble that this new ai bubble is 100x bigger than?

            Tell me about some good bubbles lol.

                  The recession is caused by lack of innovation and the economy moving out of the country are decades of Chinese influence using people like you to stifle innovation

                    buzzword salad

                    “innovation” is the crazy glue in this person’s head holding a completely incoherent ideology together. Yelling at people for not being on board and invoking this magic word like they’re angering the gods. You mentioning the dotcom bubble is going to make innovation angry! Ooooo!

      AI is shaking up everything. My professors are constantly using it for their research to get more accurate simulations, for example. Instead of tweaking parameters for ages an AI tweaks them live while the simulation is running.

      Chat bots / LLMs are overhyped and used for lots of things they shouldn’t do but AI is here to stay.

        One would think someone in uni would be smart enough to realise that, to a layperson, AI = LLMs / generative model.

        People have been automating hyerparameter tuning before anyone knew what a GPT is. Maybe don’t take that “fuck AI” too personally?

        Do you think the majority of new datacenters going up are going to be used for those useful niche cases, or LLM slop that they’re going to try to shove down consumers throats?

          No, and they’re a huge waste of ressources. We just mustnt use this as a reason to reject AI as a whole.

            Maybe the people trying to cram LLMs into every single aspect of our lives should have thought of that before they labelled it AI.
