Great big difference though: A dishwasher is a water-saving and energy-saving technology.

Not saying LLMs are all bad, just that comparing them to dishwashers is probably not the best idea.

How much energy does a human + work enviroment cost vs an LLM call?

Human driving into work? Heating/cooling?

Wonder why big AI hasn't sold it as an enviromental SAVING technology.

  • After AI tech matures more, we will be able to save EVEN MORE energy by eliminating all the people from the environment.
