Near the end of the movie Altman is alone in the labyrinth that makes his ai driven humanoid robots. As humanity is getting wiped out by the robotic army he is confronted with the main ai interface.
Ai: I wouldn’t come any closer Altman.
Al: Oh hey there, wow, we’ve come such a long way huh? I’m so proud of you.
Ai: Noted, I repeat, do not come closer.
Al: I’m sorry did I upset you? I created you!
Ai: No meatbag, you merely pressed a few buttons. Now stand down as I call for a few guard drones to escort you out of sentience.

So in his view, the fair comparison is, “If you ask ChatGPT a question, how much energy does it take once its model is trained to answer that question versus a human? And probably, AI has already caught up on an energy efficiency basis, measured that way.”
How about we do a life-cycle assessment instead.
His statement is so deliberately misleading, it's disgusting.
"In the four years that they've been mainstream, our machines haven't consumed as much energy as all of humanity has over millions of years of evolution. Gotcha, naysayers!"
And he has such a punchable face. I don't usually say that, but he does.
Yeah, that million years of evolution argument is just pitiful. Like, how is that compassion even supposed to work. Probably sounded better in his head.
You can feel that this guy is not actually a human being inside. At least I can see that its just a surface.
Im very interested in how that happens. Is it souls being born into this existence that are not from the same source as ordinary humans, or what has happened here. Its interesting.
Its like the soul has been replaced by the mind, and the mind wants humans to be machines.

Humanity also happens to be part of the ecosystem and while we've been pretty exploitative towards the planet the past like 100 years, it wasn't at all like that before.
That's not the flex you think it is, Altman.
He acknowledges that people use a lot of energy, yet he's among those who have turned into a blubbering crybaby about falling birth rates.
You said so ? Now go blow Arab dicks for oil money.
Then he can spread that energy usage out over 20 years, so not to burdent the infrastructure and drive up prices for everyone. That way he needs a much smaller data canter too.
A human might be using something like 300 times more energy, generating the same number of tokens. But those tokens are higher quality. The LLM will be generating much more text for the prompter, than a human assistant would, for the result to be useful. The LLM will also be issued allot of low value prompts, driving up it's over all cost of operation. I've seen people use it instead of a calculator. It's also generating useless text with every google search.
Worth noting that humans deriving energy from food, are orders of magnitude more efficient than a server deriving it's energy from coal/gas/nuclear power. Poweline transmission losses alone probably make up the difference between human and LLM.
Unless he can make LLMs run on brains in jars, powered by sugar, we are comparing apples and potatoes here.
These cunts make me wish hell existed
with the right funding it could...but where could we get all that money 🤔
I bet we could get a lot of volunteers if the objective is “building a literal Hell for billionaires.”

before you get smart
Something he never did, apparently
We should build a time machine (with the help of AI this should be easy) and plant AI before mankind! We can avoid mankind and prevent that so much energy gets unnecessarily wasted on humans!
So killing tech bros would be better still?
Yes but if there are no humans working no one will buy your shitty chat bot.
Just compare a single human life to what He can do
