It's like a knife maker trying to make a knife so sharp that it can cut the sky open at this point.
I'm not saying true artificial sapience is impossible as much as LLMs, no matter how large and how environmentally destructive, are like the sky-cutting knife being seen as a way into space compared to, say, a rocket.
Good luck bringing that to whatever fortified data centers in the desert that bazinga billionaires are using to house their ever-larger treat printing infrastructure.
Once again reminding everyone that the best depiction of an AI is VEGA from DOOM 2016, who helpfully walks you through its self-destruct sequence and even tells you which safety mechanisms to disable first to maximize the energy output of the explosion
Capital's inefficiency, dust, heat and humidity is why I sleep good when people flip out about AI, along with the over feared llms being random text generators.
