That must be the closest I've seen to a self refuting claim on here in a long time. Would love to hear more about how you do either the truly unlimited part or the free part practically.
Well, we do have all of that computation power. The question for what do you want to use it? What kind of endeavors do we have for which we could use all of that power? The better question would be, what would the world look like today if we didn't have all of that computation power.
Well people certainly are good at finding new ways to consume compute power. Whether it’s mining bitcoins or training a million AI models at once to generate a “meta model” that we think could achieve escape velocity. What happens when it doesn’t? And Sam Altman and the author want to get the government to pay for this? Am I reading this right?
There is a limit to the cost of computational resources, the cost would decrease until a certain limit and then that cost will apply until the heat death of the universe.
What makes you think it would require 51% of all computational power? That would only be true if there were no other valuable things to compute, which is very unlikely to be the case.
