I mean no harm.
I yesterday logged into my very old and dead M$ account. Holy fuck the experience of forced ads, timed pop ups, and thank good all of this fucking sloppy shit will be now deleted on my part. I’m not going near that diarrhea shit anymore unless paid.
I’m dum founded why we are even considering overseas services, there is a literal datacenter boom going on right now. There are many local, including massive ones like google, hetzner providers.
AWS, or cloud in general, is an money extortion service in practice for very large customers.
Current AI is a dead end, it’s less intelligent than a fly brain, which by the way can solve mazes with just 160,000 neurons, remember where the food is after hours of discovering such, is self replicating, and is a generic intelegect.
Initially, x86 CPUs didn’t have a FPU. It cost extra, and was delivered as a separate chip.
Later, GPU is just a overgrown SIMD FPU.
NPU is a specialized GPU that operates on low-precision floating-point numbers, and mostly does matrix-multiply-and-add operations.
There is zero neural processing going on here, which would mean the chip operates using bursts of encoded analog signals, within power consumption of about 20W, and would be able to adjust itself on the fly online, without having a few datacenters spending exceeding amount of energy to update the weights of the model.
I have recently realized that a sum negative knowledge situation can exist, and this is a thing with “AI”. The work the AI does may actually reduce the useful knowledge. It’s like you have built a working fusion reactor, but have zero knowledge how to replicate it or able to explain why it works.
The point this happens to a person, means she/he can’t be trusted with the tech and should stay far away from it.
The negative knowledge pit can be so deep that some people are unable to escape from it, and start confidently believing in the (AI injected) garbage like it’s their own thoughts…
