somebody must have said to refer to energy usage as electrons, because even lay people know energy is scarce, valuable, and crucial to human life/comfort while also having impacts on the environment if generated from certain sources.

energy usage has baggage. dad yelling about the power bill, "don't waste energy!" etc

using "electrons" is abstracted, because electrons are matter and matter can't be lost, really, right? so the supply must be infinite.

if he just said "our business model and heuristic for progress is converting large amounts of energy into faked videos of celebrities and chatbots for lonely people", the music would stop.

i´d face ridicule if i called power "electrons"

i´m an electrician...

what a pretentious asshole. just say it outright: you wanna fire up gas power plants to fuel your shitty server farms.

He will figure out humans have electrons then the matrix begins

The Electron clown model

China spent the past five years building a massive semiconductor industry almost from scratch. The US spent it building a bunch of data centers that will all be shuttered once the AI bubble bursts.

I'm not convinced he knows what he's talking about. He completely glossed over the fact that the electrons need to be used in conjunction with a drawn reciprocation dingle-arm to reduce sinusoidal deplenaration.

Holy crap anyone still for this shit can be safely shot on the head because they're not human and certainly not conscious.

Looks like he was half right

no yall still don't get it you can use multiple electrons on a single GPU so if you have one GPU and 3 electrons you can make 3 new bits

Spoken like a man who has no fucking clue how electricity works

Wait he thinks 1 bit is 1 electron? Tech visionary Sam Altman is so ahead of the time on quantum computing he's forgotten it isn't mainstream yet.

Aspirational tbh

is this a recession indicator

is this guy supposed to be some kind of genius because this sounds like a primary schooler that had their first science class and thinks they're smarter than the teacher

Electron deez nuts

I think one electron should be enough for anybody
