I'm impressed by how AI can help reduce the climate impact caused by airplanes.
However, I wish there were more cases like this. I see this as just one small piece of fixing the economy, because there's no incentive for companies to work on solutions like this. It's important that our economic system aligns with our need for technological solutions to issues like climate change, healthcare, poverty, and more.
The current incentives within our economic structure don't always prioritize long-term, sustainable solutions. I've thought about doing a PhD to research economic alignment, but it's not financially practical for me at the time (thanks to student loans)
Anyway, I wish we had more people researching economic alignment.
- ChatGTP 3y agoSame, I think I know what you mean? This is like a teeny donation compared to what we could be achieving if we worked together to solve major problems together rather tha constantly obsessing over shareholder value through silly things like selling more ads (which is the primary focus).

- rvz 3y ago> I'm impressed by how AI can help reduce the climate impact caused by airplanes. By wasting tons of water and resources for constant training, inference and fine tuning these AI models? I mean, for the past decade since the deep learning field itself needed tons of compute to train these models, it still requires even more data centers, ASICs, TPUs and lots of water to create these models with an insurmountable wastage with a lack of efficient alternatives for their operations. Google has a history of green-washing beyond their use of training their AI system to melt the planet. This is just yet another example of their greenwashing.
