Yeah well Hulk Hogan seemed cool in the 90s, but people change. Sloppers produce slop at the cost of quality, at the cost of the environment, at the cost of freedom, and at the cost of the economy: they deserve no credibility.

All the costs you name are attached to OpenAI/Anthropic/Nvidia/Microsoft, not the technology. You can run local models, and noone except Sam Altman and Dario Amodei need that amount of datacenters, because if they stop building, these guys are finished. Instead of bashing the technology which has a lot of uses that don't need the power of a small city, go bash the fucking end times capitalists in the US which are responsible for that shit.

The local models still burn power and consume training to produce slop, a negative is a negative, and adoption of the technology of OpenAI/Anthropic/Nvidia/Microsoft/ The Chinese Dictatorship is a bad look even if you're only contributing to optics.

Such a fucking bunch of bullshit. My fucking microwave uses more power when using my rice cooker than my GPU burns throughout a day using a chatbot. Get your numbers straight, or get ridiculed.
