This feels like PR bullshit to make people feel like AI isn’t all that bad. Assuming what they’re releasing is even true. Not like cigarette, oil, or sugar companies ever lied or anything and put out false studies and misleading data.

However, there are still details that the company isn’t sharing in this report. One major question mark is the total number of queries that Gemini gets each day, which would allow estimates of the AI tool’s total energy demand.

Why wouldn’t they release this. Even if each query uses minimal energy, but there are countless of them a day, it would mean a huge use of energy.

Which is probably what’s happening and why they’re not releasing that number.

They even go after whites.

The National Post is US-owned and conservative-leaning.

Piracy is the best thing that happened to anime. Without it, anime and Japan wouldn’t be nearly as popular.

They’re shooting themselves on the foot. People discover anime and manga through piracy, and then if they love it, they end up spending money on it.

Just look at Berserk. I bet 90% of people who spent money on the mangas and all the deluxe editions discovered it through “illegal” means.

Elon Musk is not spending $45 million a month to elect former President Donald Trump, though he has created a new super political action committee (PAC) to fund the Republican candidate, the billionaire told conservative commentator Jordan Peterson during an interview Monday evening.

What a bullshit headline. It’s literally the first line of the article.

So he is spending money to fund Trump. He’s just going through a super PAC because he can’t legally straight up give Trump 45 million.

He probably talked to his lawyers and they told him to correct himself.

“NewsBreak”, a free app with roots in China that is the most downloaded news app in the United States.

Never heard of it. Hard to believe it’s the most downloaded news app. I guess I’m out of touch.

Good read.

What’s a good site to compare cpus and gpus?

Can’t that be fixed with coding? Like, people can still vote down the unpopular opinions, and the ones with the most downvotes shows up on top.

Shouldn’t that be simple enough to do? Just make the posts with the most downvotes show up as if they were the most upvoted.

Yeah, don’t get me started on subtitles. It’s the wild west out there to get standardized good subtitles.

It’s a hobby in itself just fixing all the crappy subs.
