Is AI really particularly worse than anything else we do with computers?
I haven’t seen something that really convinced me yet. In particular, I feel it suffers from the problem of comparing an electric car to an IC engine, where more goes into it then miles per joule, like the energy and environmental damage of mining the raw materials to build the vehicle.
How much energy and time would I spend to accomplish a task without llm vs the total of my fraction of ownership of the training costs plus the inference cost.
