Libertarians BTFO
I forget who but someone hypothesized that the entire AI boom was being pumped by libertarians who wanted to make a CP generating machine before the venture capitalist money ran out and it makes way too much sense.
Graphics cards. This is all just an overcapacity in graphics card manufacturing.
It started with crypto mining. It drove up demand and chip producers were happy to scale up production to meet the new market. Today, crypto isn't the growth market it was, so that capacity had to go somewhere. Lo and behold! What a coincidence, these LLMs could do with a whole lot of parallel calculations to speed up the training! So NVIDIA went from selling new cards to crypto startups, to selling new cards to OpenAI, Microsoft, and Google.
Yeah NVIDIA said they were an AI company way back in 2014
Ay bro wtf?!
Why would you try to test ai child porn out and then tell people?!
Whether it does that or not should be known and we can't count on its creators to tell us.
Yeah I found it disturbing to read that the author tried, but then I realized that if they didn't and subsequently reported that it worked, then it would just generate CSAM for pedos until eventually someone DID report it
bro it's just a test bro i swear bro
