    Unfortunately we accidentally gave a bad software engineer too much money

      i feel like we’re in the midst of a super villain plot and we only have a limited amount of time to disrupt the ram supply before it feeds a machine that… well let’s be honest; the scary Artificial Intelligence at work here is not going to be in the data centres. It’s the global economy and supply chains.

        looks like the millenarian sect in the white house that needs a war in the middle east to precipitate the biblical apocalypse is disrupting the plans of the millenarian sect in the white house that needs data centres to precipitate the agi apocalypse 😬

          i mean, maybe my relative kindness towards AI tech is just my bias towards finding value in garbage in general.

              @celesteh i’ve felt for a while that once the hype dies down, and the counter reactions have gone, and the bubble has truly popped, in about 10 years people will start imitating the quirks of AI painstakingly by hand out of affectionate nostalgia, the way they do with VHS and CRTs now

                  @bri7 I think the problem might be worse:

                  We work in a system where people which are impressed by an algorithm eating all available resources are in charge of the money is spent.

                    @bri7 turns out we all gave the wrong answer to "how do you sort an array that doesn't fit in memory" at our technical interviews

                      @bri7 100% agree, but to nitpick: we did not gave them money, they stole it from us
