Soon, a dented toaster will be enough to run decent models.

Holy moly, I just applied the principles to DND campaign creation and I am in awe.

"Civic institutions—the rule of law, universities, and a free press" All of those are rotten and corrupted to the core. But I don't think they will be destroyed by AI. People are voting with their feet.

To charge the average Tesla in 5 minutes you need about 1MW and cables as thick as a forearm.

My experience is: If you are good at something, you will do it for ever. Be good - or get good - at things that you value.

So of those 2k calories the average human body needs to sustain itself, only a fraction of it, or none at all, is needed to perform many hours of physical labor. This means physical labor done by humans is cheap or free.

The article is fine, but the image implementation on this website did dampen the experience somewhat.

Yes, resources are infinite. That is why the carrying capacity of the earth is also infinite. Because the ingenuity of humans is infinite.

New comment by notjes in "How many AMD RX 7900 XTX's are defective?"

notjes — Thu, 12 Jan 2023 00:43:44 +0000

OT but got me thinking:

I member my old Voodoo graphics card had like 10 to 15 Watts. Then was surprised how much power the 6800Ultra consumed: whooping 70Watts. Those numbers are peanuts today. 350W for the AMD and 450W for the nVidia card.

AMD is predicting 0.7kW in 2025. I imagine in 2030 people will be having some some fancy CPU and RAM, but that GPU will be sitting on top of a 2kg block of copper to keep up with the heat generation. 1.2kW Cards here we go!

Next up: that power cable coming out of that wall is going straight into the GPU.

Maybe all these programs to help students are just a cash grab and tackle pointless non issues.

> Nuclear energy is one of the most dangerous forms of energy as one mistake in handling nuclear power can cause loss of many lives and damage for centuries

I consider Nuclear Energy an insurance policy for the local civilization. As long as a nation runs this things, the people running the gov can not totally detach from the populace and can not go totally insane.

Well, at least I thought so until Zelynsky was elected.
