fellas you are never going to believe what happened to her
All of you need to show some fucking respect to Ms Pac-Man. Without her where would your Tifa Lockhearts and Lara Crofts be. If you want to jack it to Bayonetta go bust a nut to the FIRST sexy video game woman. Salute.
Hey King did you know that Ms. Pac-Man was officially unpersoned by Namco. She doesn’t exist anymore. As far as Namco is concerned, she never did.
Went to a zoo where there’s a gay penguin couple but the problem is they’re the only penguin couple at this point that the zoo has who are healthy enough to safely raise an egg so they keep being given eggs to raise and I’m just losing it over the mental image imagine being this old gay couple who just wants to live in peace but you keep having babies handed to you because all of your friends have too many issues to look after them
So it turns out that ChatGPT not only uses a ton shit of energy, but also a ton shit of water. This is according to a new study by a group of researchers from the University of Colorado Riverside and the University of Texas Arlington, Futurism reports.
Which sounds INSANE but also makes sense when you think of it. You know what happens to, for example, your computer when it’s doing a LOT of work and processing. You gotta cool those machines.
And what’s worrying about this is that water shortages are already an issue almost everywhere, and over this summer, and the next summers, will become more and more of a problem with the rising temperatures all over the world. So it’s important to have this in mind and share the info. Big part of how we ended up where we are with the climate crisis is that for a long time politicians KNEW about the science, but the large public didn’t have all the facts. We didn’t have access to it. KNOWING about things and sharing that info can be a real game-changer. Because then we know up to what point we, as individuals, can have effective actions in our daily lives and what we need to be asking our legislators for.
And with all the issues AI can pose, I think this is such an important argument to add to the conversation.
I often think issues like this are a result of “The Cloud,” and by that I mean the propagation of this notion that data and the internet exist out in the ether somewhere and not like…on someone else’s hard drives which are housed in hundreds and thousands of huge warehouses which require climate control.
Most humans already have a LOT of magical thinking about computers, and I really wish we spent more time teaching not just basic computing skills (how to navigate an interface), but basic INFRASTRUCTURE knowledge. When you think of it as chatting with Jeff Bezos’s huge garage full of nerd hardware, it’s easier to make the logical leap to say “hey i wonder what kind of resources it takes to keep all these hard drives from overheating…?”
