This post is quite hilarious to read, it has to be satire
- dwoldrich 1mo agoI try to be a fun person. But, no it wasn't satire. I find this latest satanic panic to be so cringe. If you crave religion, I suggest you find a bible and get to know Jesus because the post-modernist stuff blows.
- mawadev 1mo agoI think I know what you mean, but that is a side effect of how eyeballs are collected with all the doomsday stuff, but lets be real here, what's the point of more data centers only for LLMs? I work with cloud stuff and you cannot, and I mean it, cannot believe how much compute is wasted on the tiniest of things just because.
- dwoldrich 1mo agoI value your experience! I agree with you the insane buildout does not make sense. The rapidly approaching optimizations in the inference space will eliminate 99% of the current compute requirements. So what do they really need all the general compute for?? I work with cloud everyday and am disgusted by the waste - not cracking 5% utilization on huge clusters. It feels like globocorpo money laundering to me. Every once in awhile you get to see good utilization in cloud with distribution and amazing scaling and failover with big data and it all seems worthwhile. :)
