Have you ever heard of a "back-of-the-napkin" estimate? Why so much reluctance to even try to make a reasoned guess?

Have you ever heard of a "back-of-the-napkin" estimate?
Why so much reluctance to even try to make a reasoned guess?
- hn_throwaway_99 3y agoBecause his "back-of-the-napkin" estimate that someone is going to spend $100 billion to train a "GPT-6" (whatever that means) is laughably bad. These aren't estimates, these are just uninformed guesses pulled from nowhere.

Here, the information literally just wrote an article on $100 billion data center: https://www.theinformation.com/articles/microsoft-and-openai-plot-100-billion-stargate-ai-supercomputer https://www.theinformation.com/articles/microsoft-and-openai... It seems the most ignorant also tend to be the most arrogant.
