I’m sure they’ll find something even more problematic to dump money into sooner or later.

Of course it’s not only ai, but the article’s subhead: “Statistics raise concerns that rise in demand for data processing driven by AI could derail climate targets”

Can we just cancel the whole “ai” thing? It was fun for a bit, now it’s just problems.

For the good of everyone, except the ones who are dead. 🤪

Yes good point… naturally “guzzling resources at planet eating rates” is quite expensive.

I’m so not sold on this AI stuff. It just seems like a fancy new way to create problems.

“factual accuracy in large language models remains an area of active research”

This really says a lot.

Anyone who works nights, or an evening job that runs late like a bar or something, is currently used to having the date change in the middle of their “day”. I don’t think it’s really that big of a deal. It would be super weird at first, but kids who grew up with it would find our current system just as bananas as we would find this.
