Heads up that this account (and whole server) is going dark for the next week.
Tomorrow morning shutting down the server for the move, will be back the 22nd or 23rd.
Sharing this story from @Cory Doctorow because it's so much of what I've been saying.
Shipping a model that runs badly – that needs more data-centers and energy to run – is a way to convince investors that it's doing something really advanced (after all, look how much compute and energy it's consuming!).

AAAAAAAAAH!
... slightest hint of possible bad news and I fucking spiraled into a panic attack...
Nothing bad actually happened... other than the panic attack which has me completely wrecked...
Twitchy, on the edge of tears and a complete fucking nightmare storm of emotions...
😭😭😭😭😭

Unknown parent • •@Dan Shuman @Cory Doctorow The whole article points out that AI itself isn't useless, just that it's being used inefficiently.
Basically like having 20-30 people doing the job of 1 person just because it looks impressive to have that many people on the payroll.
It doesn't mean the 1 person job isn't any good, just that a lot of resources are being wasted that don't have to be.
