    @cabel

    For so many reasons, AI is not the next industrial revolution. The math does not math. The more advanced it becomes the more tokens are spent. The subscriptions people are buying right now are heavily subsidize to the tune of between five and 12 times the cost in tokens. The companies are trying to wriggle out from that real reality. Beyond this is the infrastructure reality that distinguishes data centers from previous bubbles like rail or dot com.

        @cabel Here's a link to the original video, at the timestamp where she is introduced: https://youtu.be/zwYkHS8jvSE?t=4424

        If you don't feel like listening to her entire speech, here's a link to the moment: https://youtu.be/zwYkHS8jvSE?t=4870

            @cabel given the amount of harm the industrial revolution did to the planet and how it reshaped the society causing mental issues to many workers, I don't think she said anything controversial

              @cabel https://escaperoad.org That’s the danger of spending too much time in like-minded spaces — eventually it starts to feel like everyone shares the same perspective. Moments like this can be a pretty harsh reality check.

                            @PaniczGodek @cabel the Industrial Revolution also lifted billions of people out poverty and into prosperity. I don’t see AI doing anything like that.

                              @howking @cabel the luddites weren’t against the machine, they were against capitalist ownership and the transition of craftsmen with some power into factory workers with none. It’s a much more nuanced storey.

                                      @danbrotherston @PaniczGodek @cabel Depending on what counts as poverty and prosperity.

                                      (as an example most(? at least the most influential) poverty calculations count subsistence farming on communal land as poverty because there's no private ownership, no matter how abundant the yield is)

                                        @howking @cabel that certainly isn’t true. There are definitely a variety of issues people may have with the current AI industry. Many certainly are concerned with the environment. And many including myself also object to the financial situation.

                                          @danbrotherston @cabel Just like AI haters aren’t opposed to the environmental and financial impacts of AI; they’re simply afraid of being replaced and don’t want to learn new skills.

                                          Oh, I can assure you, as an AI hater, I am deeply, profoundly opposed to the environmental impacts of generative AI and data centers. If dismissing AI critics with such a simplistic broad brush is the best you got, well, I rest my case.
