A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

Quick, what's something else that uses thousands of GPUs, electricity and fresh water that we can sell to VCs?

  • ~~VR~~
  • ~~.com~~
  • ~~Big Data~~
  • ~~VR~~
  • ~~Crypto Currency~~
  • ~~VR~~
  • ~~Gen AI~~
  • ???

(ETA to add a couple of bubbles to the list.)

AR glasses that require a server for all their functionality?

[–] sundray@lemmus.org 10 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Oh that's good, I forgot about VR/AR!

[–] Valmond@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago

With AI augments of course.

[–] atrielienz@lemmy.world 10 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

NFT's should be on this list. Well. That and the metaverse.

[–] Sludgehammer@lemmy.world 12 points 3 days ago (1 children)

A triple A game that's so bloated and un-optimized it requires two, no... three video cards in parallel to properly run.

[–] wander1236@sh.itjust.works 9 points 3 days ago

That doesn't narrow it down

[–] Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Tea and coffee for everyone.

Seti

[–] sundray@lemmus.org 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Can we convince VCs that SETI will eventually pay out, though?

[–] vane@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago

When you connect aliens with people so they can talk with each other. Multiply telecommunication market capital by 2.

[–] virku@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

So hot right now!

[–] vane@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

3I/ATLAS or something else ?

[–] virku@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Uh, well I was joking, but I guess I would rather the resources were put into Folding At Home or something like that.

[–] vane@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

I thought about mining because all tech relies on mining minerals but aliens are more popular

[–] natebluehooves@pawb.social 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

ETA? I assume you don’t mean estimated time of arrival?

[–] sundray@lemmus.org 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

LOL, I'm afraid I did a "PIN Number" bit of redundancy. "Edited to Add to add." Oops!

[–] natebluehooves@pawb.social 5 points 2 days ago

oh I didn’t even realize edited to add was a thing. haven’t encountered that before!

[–] ZDL@lazysoci.al 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

You can add VR/Metaverse next for the ???. They keep (as you noted there) trying that one on for size over and over again.
