I'm over here on the left buddy. Dems certainly need to do something different. The Republicans are playing for keeps and we're over here dicking around. Definitely aligning all policy to serve capital hasn't helped motivate a working class coalition.

I think you underestimate the ability of any particular Democrat to not move much to the left.

Not holding my breath the center and left can get along. If they screw this up, of course the next votes not going to go well.

What kind of violence wouldn't cost them the election? I could see governor's contriving an emergency and sending national guards to attack migrants and protestors. I can't really imagine anything else that wouldn't have Jan 6 blowback.

I think project 2025 is pro the FDA banning mifepristone. When he has purposely evaded taking a stance, maybe you could highlight what his future political appointe network is pushing?

So many great questions... "How was the FBI chasing an allegation from a guy who had recycled debunked Fox News propaganda? How was David Weiss permitted to demand Special Counsel status, and renege on the plea deal he made with Hunter Biden, based on a tip he had been given back in 2020?"

I'm also dying at how the media is covering Hunter's case. No context of how we got here, or how stupid any of the charges are. Yet they seemed to fall over backwards to quote legal scholars about the "dumb" charges for covering up paying a porn star, that he got convicted of!

One possibility, among several. It also could have been conceived by Tolkien to be pretty egalitarian with a surplus coming from a low population density. Or there could just magic at work.

This could be the case, but if query demand jumps (from being forced onto every Google/Bing search, or something like that) before this leaner model is available, we would still see a crazy server/energy spike now. The example you gave had a 25 year gap, and things seems to be happening fast here.

I.e, at first glance I think a sizable amount of query demand will just be for bigger and better models. With lighter models for some niche uses, like McDonalds self Check-out machine, or w/e, that some programmer sets up

Maybe the future is this lighter model thing. But do you really think the casual user will be willing to figure out which lighter model to use, when they can just ask chatgpt7 or whatever?

And OpenAI is probably hoping that integration everywhere will lead to crazy query growth. Which makes me think we're still at the start of this data center boom

Sorry for the delay in responding. Just going to say I think we're both a bit right here. ChatGPT has something like 10 million queries per day, so given your plot it would roughly take 60 days for ChatGPT to use the same amount of electricity in queries aa it does to train the model.

Maybe I do not understand this at all, but I thought AI energy expenditure is largely a function of the number of queries, which goes up with integration everywhere. I don't know/think chat gpt or similar could run on an edge device. Maybe I'm misunderstanding your point.

I was also talking about AI data centers. My prior is they're going to need a lot more if they plan to integrate it into every app and cranny. It would be nice to see both the price to the user with and without externalities. Right now it's all just free or very cheap.

It would be nice if customers could see the price, instead of getting it dumped on us for free with venture capital money, until its the only game in town.
