I’d like all ai service to publish the energy used in training the model and performing inference.

“Queries uses an average of X kWh of power. A model training run requires X MWh, and the development of this model over the years required X TWh of power.”

Then we could judge companies by that metric. Off course, rich people would look for the most power-draining model for the sake of it.

Worst is when you realise so many others have the same passion, but they are misogynistic assholes about it so I can’t really enjoy it anymore…

Mines are designated war crimes by the Geneva convention Ottawa treaty because of the indiscriminate killing. Many years ago, good human right lawyers could have extended that to drones… (Source: i had close friends in international law)

But i feel like now the tides have changed and tech companies have influenced the general population to think that ai is good enough to prevent “indiscriminate” killing.

Edit: fixed the treaty name, thanks!
