Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.
This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

That’s from the screenshot where they asked the o1 model about the cryptic tweet. There’s certainly utility in these LLMs, but it made me chuckle thinking about how much compute power was spent coming up with this nonsense.
Edit: since this is the internet and there are no non-verbal cues, maybe I should make it clear that this “chuckle” is an ironic chuckle, not a careless or ignorant chuckle. It’s pointing out how inefficient and wasteful a LLM can be, not meant to signal that wasting resources is funny or that it doesn’t matter. I thought that would be clear, but you can read it both ways.
yes, the massive waste of resources involved is definitely “funny”, that’s definitely the bit of this awful shit to post a take about
Relax, I’m probably worried just as much about climate change and waste of resources as you are, if not more. My take was an ironic take.
We laugh that we can avoid screaming and continue to fight, in whatever small ways we can.
make better posts
but all this spicy food I ate still has to go through my system - just like you still have to make good posts
seriously, you show up here sight unseen and your very first posts are to take up weird stances on other people’s comments? the fuck
cool, time for this account to disappear too
lol their last comment made it through to my client notifications, and the utter “it’s you not me” vibe to it is beyond. no need to repeat it I guess but just fucking wow
