    I find it insane when “tech bros” and AI researchers at major tech companies try to justify the wasting of resources (like water and electricity) in order to achieve “AGI” or whatever the fuck that means in their wildest fantasies.

    These companies have no accountability for the shit that they do and consistently ignore all the consequences their actions will cause for years down the road.

      What’s funny is that we already have general intelligence in billions of brains. What tech bros want is a general intelligence slave.

      It’s research. Most of it never pans out, so a lot of it is “wasteful”. But if we didn’t experiment, we wouldn’t find the things that do work.
