As I was using LLMs at work (I never use LLMs for personal projects), a question occurred to me:

What in the fuck are these new data centers supposed to actually do?

The enterprise users are all in on having LLMs write 300% of the code. And yet, both OpenAI and Anthropic are still giving these “$200 gets you $10 000 in API costs” subscriptions to every victim of AI psychosis.

Why do we have RAM, hard disk, SSD, GPU and CPU shortages and no “token shortage”?

I mean, we all know the answer, these are the offerings for the robot god, but like how in the fuck are they still obtaining loans for this shit?

    I think you’re right. There is this constant need for governments and the elite in general to keep tabs on the population. They need to detect dissidents that arranges protests, generate push back, are whistleblowers and just people who are somehow a threat to their power structures. Our online activities through phones and computers are presumably already surveilled and is used to profile us. Your LG tv is listening to everything you say by the way and I’m sure they are not alone. That combined with camera footage of physical activity/presence just fortifies their hold on the population further.

      specially any progressive movement needs to outmunevered and quashed before it gets too large. both the DINOs and gop do not want a united front of voters against them.
