This might be the worst case of anti-AI panic I’ve ever seen, people are calling him lazy for not learning Chinese from scratch and want his head on a spike
@TrueSlazac Assuming they aren’t some bot-fueled psyop, insane how the negative replies became as popular as they did. This is as true-to-purpose usage of an LLM as it can be. And moralizing not knowing a language is fuckijg brainrot; if languages were easy everyone would be polyglots
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.

What are we doing?
University of Wisconsin microbiology professor Timothy Paustian tells students during a class lecture that "we have a psychopath who's going to be the head of Health and Human Services. He's a moron. That's not a political thing, that's a fact."
Indian home beauty startup YesMadam sent a survey to their employees about stress and then fired the employees that said they were under significant stress 🤦🏽♂️
South Koreans demand that their leader who tried to stage a coup resign immediately while in America we re-elected the coup plotter as president.
Embarrassing.
Imagine being so braindead that you fully believe that voting for a billionaire backed by another billionaire that’s backed by a cabal of billionaires and monarchs is anti-establishment. Some of you should really apologize to the tree whose oxygen you’ve wasted.
This is good, actually. She barely shows up and doesn’t do the reading.
To borrow a phrase I saw elsewhere, it’s like giving someone an unplugged controller.
