don't forget to let them vote.. "algorithms are people too"

sounds like you need an AsshoLLM to sit between you and Claude to translate.

> Maybe some money to be made?

In the same way that there is money to be made by entering a poker tournament, yes.


A poker tournament where there is a good chance someone participating has special information about which cards were just dealt.

> As long as he didn't place any bets, I think what he did is totally fine.

you might need to take your imagination and critical thinking out for a spin if you can't see where this leads.


> Doing so disables AI and all the other features and just gets you 10 links like in the old days…

i expect that opt-out to become harder and harder to find on every re-design, until it is gone entirely. that's on like.. page 2 in the playbook for introducing some shitty new thing that is good for shareholders and not users.


or put differently, you melted x cubic meters of polar ice

Based on some napkin math, that would be about ~100 watt hours of electricity on an H100 cluster, or, roughly the same amount of energy needed to boil a kettle for a cup of tea.

That's an exceptionally fast output you have there...

Mind showing your working out?


Lotr ~1.4k pages 1 page ~1k tok -> ~700k tok 1tok ~0.5J -> 350kJ ~100Wh ~1 cup of tea

Doing anything melts x cubic meters of polar ice.

AI search.. they should at least put that behind a "I'm feeling unlucky" button

sounds like they had some cross cutting concerns

A counterpoint:

Working in /plan mode bouncing ideas back and forth with the AI, me catching its wrong assumptions, it filling in knowledge gaps with a clear explanation when needed, is very intellectually stimulating and I think is making me a better engineer. The key for me has been to be socratic with the AI, think through everything it is proposing carefully, and don't get hypnotized by its confidence, perfectly structured arguments, etc.


speak for yourself, i'm not a big fan of murder


Me too. I'm upset, but not _too_ upset. I'm not a big fan of other things as well, for example things CEOs do.
