LLM’s will probably improve at an exponential level - similar to how cpu’s did in the 80s/90s. in ~10 generations the LLMs will likely be very useful
Comment on AI Computing on Pace to Consume More Energy Than India, Arm Says
BakerBagel@midwest.social 1 month agoThe current LLM’S kinda suck, but companies have fired huge swaths of their staff and plan in putting LLMs in their place. Either those companies hire back all those workers, or they get the programs to not suck. And making LLMs actually capable of working unsupervised will take more and more energy.

Sure, but it's simply not physically possible for AI to be consuming that much power. Not enough computers exist, and not enough ability to manufacture new ones fast enough. There hasn't been a giant surge of new power plants built in just the past few years, so if something was suddenly drawing an India's worth of power then somewhere an India's worth of consumers just went dark.
This just isn't plausible.

My take is that LLMs are absolutely incredible… for personal use and hobby projects. I can’t think of a single task I would trust an LLM to perform entirely unsupervised in a business context.
Of course, that’s just where LLMs are at today, though. They’ll improve.
