<p>> Online discussions about jobs mostly read like it's a cutthroat single player game where you shouldn't get too close to anyone because you can't trust anyone and you should be planning your next job hop anyway<p>You don't think this is a response to corporate culture? Especially over the last few years.</p>

<p>Gaming seems like it might as well be a different industry. Theres coding involved but I don't think the typical coder can get into a game dev job. Mostly because of hiring requirements.</p>

<p>If you make your own chip don't you need to make your own software stack too. Which is what I thought kept everyone using Nvidia.</p>

<p>The whole idea is ignoring why people program or create music, illustration or w/e.<p>Think through an art career, some kid goes through high school, a fine arts degree or something. You get a job working on movies, video games something flashy. Now AI is going to take that All away.<p>Programming, maybe you start off making games or hacking,then you go too School and get a job. The job is a whole team or sr swes who don't care, your going through project planning ceremonies, playing politics, working on communication skills so you can survive in the corporate environment. You're just working on connecting some crm to some other API. You had to grind Leetcode problems to get that pointless job. What exactly are programmers protecting by hating ai? The job already sucks, it's already pointless, and the first world has been threatened by being replaced already by cheap 3rd world employees</p>

<p>yes, what is the system experiencing consciousness? the whole datacenter is conscious? the load balancers, the switches and routers, the firewalls, the ssds, the cpus coordinating the work  all included?<p>every time you ask for the next token you different gpus on different servers are used. each generation of a token is an independent operation from the previous.<p>a brain is a system of neurons, you can add or remove some, it still some how generates a conscious experience. an llm generating tokens is doing math in a distributed way across what ever gpu happens to be free for that isolated request. there is no consistent system. what do you consider to be the conscious entity? the random selection of gpus? you think something is conscious one token at a time? what is the exact thing that is thinking? the way you can point to a body, you cant do that for an llm string of tokens. thats where i think it falls apart. your doing math that eventually reduces into a final number. theres no one system that continues to run and take input in.</p>

<p>Your thinking to low. There's no neurons in the llm. My nervous system makes up a system. It's consistent between experiences.<p>What's the system, the thing, that's experiencing consciousness when you talk about llms? Again, if you think through the request path of each token that's generated, this idea falls apart.</p>

<p>Only small models are conscious then? They're only conscious when the mat mul is running? When I switch to gaming what happens to it? If inference can run on one gpu then they're going to be shared between different user's requests. What if running on one gpu is never faster then doing parallel work? They'll never be conscious.<p>You need to think through the entire request for an llm model response end to end.</p>

<p>It's not the same you're not thinking at the right level. Your brain is your brain and your born with all of your neurons. The math in an llm request is run on what ever compute is available across multiple GPUs, servers and racks, assuming it's even run since there are caches involved. Is a cached response conscious?<p>The same gpu can run multiple llm requests for different people.<p>My neurons don't handle experiences for other humans. It's not a multi tenant brain (I hope haha)</p>
