Okay, I agree, but you can’t tell me some server rooms don’t look cool af.
We're on the wrong timeline!

That is correct, I have worked in a server room that has glass floor panels with gamer lighting under them, mood lighting in the ceiling and a huge viewing window in the wall to the rest of the office.
It looked damn cool.

The left image looks like an old Cray computer. Could be an interesting indicator of the age of the image or the artist who made it.
cm0002@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Lol it’s the XANA super computer from Code Lyoko

I think their point stands. I wonder of the creator of the show was directly influenced by Cray.
antimidas@sopuli.xyz 2 months ago
Cray often had interesting designs that probably ended up influencing a lot of sci-fi. CDC (control data corporation) had interesting designs as well, prior to that, and Cray worked there before founding his own company.
One other supercomputer line with iconic looks is Connection Machines which are IMO some of the coolest looking computers ever made.

They are going to be powered by small modular reactors, though. So I guess there’s one extra box you can tick.
hansolo@lemm.ee 2 months ago
We can tick the box on spec now and check back in 10 years to see if they ever actually developed a commercially viable rector.

This is … Incredibly dumb.
The whole climate impact of AI is overstated a million times over. You can run a perfectly capable, GPT 4o destroying LLM on your own GPU right now. What is the difference between jonkling to vidya gaems or running an LLM for doing something productive for a fucking change?
The servers running the network you posted this shit over , the servers used to develop your favorite Gacha coom game, the servers used to deliver your shit ass Xitter feed, or your Netflix garbage, use more power than AI and LLMs are actually actively more productive than that shit
VonReposti@feddit.dk 2 months ago
You can run a fully fletched LLM at home but you can’t generate the model. The latter is a huge contributor to power consumption. Running it is peanuts in comparison.
vivendi@programming.dev 2 months ago
That is a one time cost. Do you add the cost of every single watt of electricity ever generated, the cost of making factories, extracting materials and so on, to the “climate impact” of electrical rail service or EVs?
This is just hysteria, I’m going to be absolutely deadass with you
Also, you theoretically could make an LLM entirely on your own PC, it’d just take a bit of time

Weirdly enough then that OpenAI is losing money on every querry, they lose money on every paid subscription and are on track to lose billions this year.

AI companies are looking at nuclear, so we might get a check on the top right box soon.
Three Mile Island is reopening and selling its power to Microsoft
Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 2 months ago
AI companies are completely unable to afford to keep running, and I’d be incredibly surprised if they’re still seriously around in 2028

we wanted fusion powered machines. “nucular” is only for the tarded muricans.

No way those racks are running GPUs.

I was trying to find the most boring data center picture I could ok, sooo many of them seem to have been taken with a lot of “artistic license” and hyped up LMAO

Here’s some newer ones

The computer itself? Safe! The dangerous AI XANA? Absolutely would destroy the climate. Literally was overcharging a power cylinder thing in order to send a powerful enough charge to a nuclear power plant in order to cause nuclear fallout in one episode.

It’s the AI hallucinations that I am worried about - beware of the info provided by AI
danc4498@lemmy.world 2 months ago
You don’t know if they’re sentient or not. I bet if the AI becomes sentient it won’t let humans know.
