“But it also takes a lot of energy to train a human,” Altman said. “It takes like 20 years of life and all of the food you eat during that time before you get smart. And not only that, it took the very widespread evolution of the 100 billion people that have ever lived and learned not to get eaten by predators and learned how to figure out science and whatever, to produce you.”
So in his view, the fair comparison is, “If you ask ChatGPT a question, how much energy does it take once its model is trained to answer that question versus a human? And probably, AI has already caught up on an energy efficiency basis, measured that way.”


If we ate just one techbro the other ones would fall in line pretty quickly
If you eat one techbro, you consume about 300,000 kcal, which is significantly more energy than it takes to ask chatGPT one question. So who is more energy efficient, AI-atheists? /s
So we power the LLM data centers with techbros until we are out of techbros, after which we shut down the LLM data centers. Pretty sure we’d be able to take a half day, honestly.
Why /s
To make it clear that it’s sarcasm
We should just eat them all. They stopped contributing anything of value years ago.
Idk man, I am really scared of prion diseases.
So don’t eat the brains. Those are rotten anyway.
A good ol’ public hanging.
hanging is too straightforward
