    What’d you use? Where’d you learn?

  • According to Claude, if you made 100 queries in a day it would account for about 0.01% of the water usage of the average American household.

    Apparently, the bigger issue is actually the usage when training the AI models. Most major companies are pivoting towards more eco-friendly options like closed-loop systems and coolant submerging the hotter parts of the systems, but there’s not enough transparency to really gauge the extent of it.

    Water cycle aside the water usage numbers people throw around are based on typos in articles that were since redacted

    Not really, but oddly, industry seems to either not care to, or does a poor job in explaining how they work to citizens and the efforts gone into improving energy efficiency and recycling water use.

    Its actually quite bizarre

    Oh yeah, or they compare numbers from creating a 10 minute video all with ai to asking a chatbot a text based question

    I double majored in comp sci and math in college and took some masters courses but also did a lot of solo learning and had an internship doing government research which is wayyy less impressive than it sounds lol

    @AlfredoMobsta learning the science of AI and how it works won’t make you any money really unless you’re at the top and a scientist at anthropic or meta. Understanding how to use LLMs and creating agents to basically be like workers is the best way to make money with it

  • lol

  • The dangers of AI centers is the money put into them coulda been spent on like…better use in the actual cities they’re put in.

    The jobs argument in this segment is bullshit, but they get into some of the concerns.

    allegedly factory farming uses more water

    I believe it. raising large animals is incredibly intensive in terms of resources used per calorie gained. it takes around 500-600 gallons of water to "grow" a single quarter pound beef patty.

    AI is a new frontier and there is a bubble right now so grifters rush to make profit off of that and all the funding and manpower from government,etc is going towards that instead of fixing the ever increasing problems in america,
    The USA is a pressure cooker right now until our current regime ends and it will end, As all regimes do, They are already eating themselves alive while revolutionary thought raises amongst almost every age group.
    It's wild times in america.

    U b fw the different loss functions and architectures? That requires knowledge of how it all works. Everything short of understanding backpropagation
