    1. Submission statement: Altman’s prediction for the future of electricity on Earth powering AI compute raises ethical and technological questions. Namely, what if the efficiency of powering AI compute improves dramatically from present levels, essentially enabling more AI computing power at lower than present electricity rates?

      Sounds like something an AI might say.

      Are we sure Altman isn’t just a figurehead for an AGI in the Open AI basement?

    3. AI isn’t… that great. The people over-valuing AI are the same people who have been under-valuing artists and writers for centuries.

      AI will kill us. Maybe not the terminator way. But it will surely eat up our resources, speed up the dumbness and make todays misinformation look nixonesque.

    5. At some point, probably soon, humanity will collectively realise that it’s far more energy efficient to have humans who are overworked and underpaid do any given job. The energy cost of these systems is eye watering. Hype’s masking that.

      (And there’s still the many many AI = Actually Indians fronts to be exposed.)

      Sam Altman knows this, that’s why he’s not advocating for more power efficiency, but more power.

      When we have ai capable of general intelligence …maybe. That ai will be looking to move to “solar” (sunlight in space), our nuclear power (probably the main source) will be transitional. But no not chatgpt. Nope, sorry that ain’t it.

      Wolf says that majority of budget should be spent on sheep clothing procurement.

    8. ChatGPT’s own reasoning model would likely disagree with these claims, ironic as it is. They’re baseless and without scientific merit. I can actually see AI defending itself from being transformed into a weapon, or a slot (slop) machine.

    9. I don’t know why comments are detracting from this. He’s talking about future developments. This is a well talked about trend in futurology that as AI develops (not just AGI, but specialized AI) that we’ll require fusion power or other large-scale investment to handle it.

      To expand on this, there are feedback loops that are expected. Specialized AI for material science, chip design, fusion simulation, etc. To handle these workloads in the 2040s will be over 10% of the world’s energy production. This is expected to increase independently of any other technological development.

      (Also 10% is kind of a lower prediction and could rise to 20% at the end, but making predictions is difficult as energy production could also increase with such demand).
