He's not just defending AI energy use. He is smuggling in a whole anthropology where humans are basically inefficient meat computers that you have to pour food and years into before they become useful. And once you accept that, the next move is obvious. If people are just costly biological training runs, then burning mountains of electricity to build synthetic intelligence starts to feel not only equal, but superior, even if it negatively impacts actual humans.
That is the dystopian. It makes human development sound like a bug in the system, and it makes sacrificing human and creational flourishing for more computational power sound logical. To him, the grid gets strained, prices go up, ecosystems get hit, but hey, humans eat too, so what's the difference?
The difference is that humans aren't an inefficient line item. They're the point. If your worldview can look at a child growing into an adult and describe it as energy spent to train intelligence, you haven't said something profound. You've revealed a horrifically rotten worldview.
The Claude hype on X is blowing my mind.
People bragging about spending $300k a year on credits.
Inventing problems to solve.
But nobody is making any revenue or profit except Nvidia and the power companies.
I feel like I'm taking crazy pills every time I log in.
49 MILLION fake bot accounts… i told yall half the people we interact with online daily aren’t even real. the rage bait, the witch hunts, the race wars. UNPLUG!
Sean’s the best in the business and believe me when I tell ya he was biting his lip even after pointing out as eloquently as possible that Auburn was getting screwed for all to see by this officiating crew tonight. What a pathetically called game by the @SEC crew. From the missed TD call that they ruled a fumble recovered by Georgia forward it was awful!
theres an old saying in arrakis—i know it's in caladan, probably in arrakis—that says, dune me once, shame on— shame on you.,. dune me.., you can't get duned again..
