I've been looking at the raw math for TCO op costs, resale values, required revenue to recoup and upgrade on a 3 year cycle, etc and nothing makes sense

system like this would run 70B models at an aggregate 268 tokens per second and a purchase + first year running cost aggregate of like $415k. electricity at 100% utilization would be like $12.5k per year. I dont know how to specifically amortize personnel but let's just say it takes $50k of people time to manage a unit. three year ownership at a 50% resale rate give total operating cost three years $362500

would generate about 8.4 billion tokens in a year.
362500 / 8.4x3 / 1000 = $14.38 per million token to break even. Not profit and replace system, break even.

my conclusion is this AI craze is destabilizing the world and providing no tangible benefit

people are going to look back at this time the same way we look back on the dot com bubble bursting and all the dumb shit going on then.

chatgpt charges you 2 dollars for a million tokens, when it should be 15 - 20 bucks as a sane business model. and like more than half the internet i assume, like myself aren't paying for any of this shit and just using the daily free amount of all the LLMs to power their dumb ai art / chatbots currently.

And Masai? Damn, I believe those Masai warriors are pretty hard people. Hunters

It is almost mean, but I love vids where they bring the super remote tribes the best candy bars. Kit Kat. Milky Way. Snickers. All that stuff. And ask them to try for the first time on camera. They go from eating hardened cow shit to a snickers bar and are like “Wowww” They almost always mention honey because it’s the only thing that remotely compares in their life experience. And then it’s like “ok I’m leaving now go back to eating your hardened cow shit….”

I’ve also always had a thing for black chicks, and always have this fantasy (unrealistic) of banging some hot tribal woman lol

fission bombs are really simple to build, fission reactors even simpler, the hardest part is acquiring fissionable material

it's rather unsettling when you think about how easy it is to build nukes, and it's one of the things our intelligence community actually seems to get right and stay on top of

If it was intended as an insult you needa try harder.

Opensource was a paradigm before it was a coined phrase.
That paradigm led to the quick implimentation of networking protocols and the various file systems some of which are still in use today.
NFS for example is still used in many consumer file servers. Original opensource.
Tcp/ip stack.
Many Web protocols etc.

Shared knowledge accelerated development.
Closed and proprietary softwares and protocols stagnated it. But it sure made those companies a shit ton of cash.

It is very difficult to explain to someone who does not care to do their own research. It is nuanced. Using opensource to make money is possible. You just cant claim the bits you used as your own. Your addon is open to whatever lisence you release it under.

You are correct though, there are waaaay too many versions of various gpl/copyleft. It is bullshit.

I wonder how long it will be before this is possible, like a request that simple could net you a solid 10 episode series that had consistent characters, storyline, and all that.

I think first of all they need to go back to the older chat GPT that hallucinated. I think all the stuff they did to stop AI hallucinations totally messed up the creative responses. It's like talking to dilbert now.

I used to have it make me short stories and id get stories that were so sick and now they're so awful and generic.

I used to have it make me short stories and id get stories that were so sick and now they're so awful and generic.

it's 100% *possible* right now but the compute cost to render 10 episodes of anime like you described would be pretty expensive, like you'd have to use LLMs to do the quality control on other LLMs work and the resulting wasted rendered frames makes it still not worth it, i assume.

it's basically like that infinite monkeys in a room with type writers will eventually produce the works of Shakespeare type shit on some level but not as exaggerated


so the math prolly doesn't work on a personal level yet but i'm less sure about a just random anime show being created that way to be put on netflix or Crunchyroll or w/e

A decent 13 episode anime costs in between 1.5 to 2 million dollars. That's counting the production, marketing and merchandise.

yeah.... idk what % of that is production but if the lines on the graph of human artists vs AI haven't already converged they will soon on the costs

Looks like it could be a real anime. Wasn’t one of the characters in one punch man a half robot dude with great looking hair? One of the only animes I ever seen, that and Akira

[Ekco]

that and Akira

only anime you really need to see, most recent anime i watched was, fuck i forgot the name but it was on netflix and it was about people that hunted dragons in their airship

it was basically about the whaling industry in a fantasy world if the whales could fly, pretty gud premise.

Reasoned for 5 seconds
The anime you're referring to is likely Drifting Dragons. This Netflix series follows a crew aboard an airship as they hunt dragons for their meat and oil—quite similar to a whaling industry but in a fantastical setting. The premise of hunting airborne "whales" (dragons) aligns well with the description you provided.

thanks, computer.

Ah I heard Japan has a problem with that. There was a southpark on it if I recall

If there’s another awesome anime I might be down to see it if it’s convenient and I don’t have to sign up for stuff. I’m not completely against them, I just often find them campy. But One Punch man I liked because it kinda knew that about itself

Akira
Samurai Champloo
Outlaw Star
Cowboy Bebop
Ghost in the Shell
Dominion Tank Police
Patlabor 3
Ninja Scrolls
Moribito: Guardian of the Spirit ( had to ask the LLM for the name of this one cause i didn't remember it)
Iria: Zeiram the Animation

>Dr. Stone is a Japanese manga series
>Delicious in Dungeon is a Japanese manga series

if its a cartoon adapt from a comic book in japan, it meets my definition of Anime

anime is literally just a boomerang word "'animation' became 'anime' in Japanese and came back as 'anime' in English."

Delicious in Dungeon - In a fantasy world of dungeon exploration, adventuring parties set out on expeditions to raid dungeons,

see, i knew good new shit must exist i just hadn't gone out and searched for it, i remember a website existing that was like the spotify for anime and it would recommend shit you would like but i forget the name

This is what the world needs in 2025

Templar Knights with Iron Man suits

The Templar Knights, formally known as the Poor Fellow-Soldiers of Christ and of the Temple of Solomon, were a medieval Christian military order founded in 1119. Their beliefs were deeply rooted in the religious and cultural context of the 12th and 13th centuries, and some of them would indeed seem unusual or strange to modern sensibilities. Here are a few examples:
Veneration of Relics: The Templars, like many medieval Christians, placed immense spiritual value on holy relics—objects believed to be connected to Jesus, the Virgin Mary, or saints (e.g., pieces of the True Cross, bones, or clothing). They believed these relics had miraculous powers, such as healing or protection in battle. Today, this intense focus on physical objects as conduits of divine power might strike many as superstitious or bizarre.
Chastity as a Sacred Duty: Templars took vows of chastity, viewing sexual abstinence as a way to maintain spiritual purity and devotion to God. They were forbidden from any contact with women, even casual conversation, which was seen as a potential source of temptation. In a modern world where personal freedom and relationships are highly valued, this extreme rejection of basic human instincts might seem alien or excessive.
Martyrdom as an Ideal: The Templars glorified death in battle against "infidels" (non-Christians, particularly Muslims during the Crusades) as a guaranteed path to heaven. Their Rule stated that dying for the faith was a noble and holy act, earning them eternal reward. This willingness—even eagerness—to embrace violent death contrasts sharply with contemporary views that prioritize preserving life and avoiding conflict.
Communal Living and Rejection of Personal Property: Templars took vows of poverty, surrendering all personal possessions to the order. They lived communally, sharing everything from clothing to food, and individual wealth was forbidden. In today’s individualistic, consumer-driven society, this complete renunciation of personal ownership would seem radical or impractical to many.
Secret Initiation Rituals: While much of the Templars’ mystique comes from later myths, historical evidence suggests their initiation ceremonies were secretive and included symbolic acts—like spitting on a cross—to test obedience or humility (though this was wildly exaggerated by their enemies during their downfall). Such rituals, even if misunderstood, would feel arcane and unsettling to a modern audience accustomed to transparency and skepticism of secret societies.
Divine Right to Violence: The Templars believed they were divinely sanctioned to wage war in God’s name, blending monastic piety with martial aggression. This fusion of monk and warrior—praying one moment, slaughtering enemies the next—was unique even in their time and would seem paradoxical or disturbing to people today who often separate spirituality from violence.
Obsession with Jerusalem: The Templars were fixated on protecting Jerusalem and the Holy Land, believing it to be the literal center of the world and God’s chosen place. Their entire existence revolved around this mission, which might seem oddly specific or geographically obsessive to a modern globalized society less tied to single sacred locations.
These beliefs made perfect sense in the medieval Christian worldview, shaped by intense faith, feudal loyalty, and the Crusades’ fervor. Today, however, they stand out as strange due to shifts in cultural norms, secularism, and a broader understanding of the world. What strikes you as the most unusual of these?

Serious question.

Why are algorythms so bad? Like, if I look at a video on tuesday at 2pm

Next time I open up youtube at 2pm on a tuesday, maybe THEN show a suggestion like that video.

Like, these algorythms seem to do 1 thing:

"what was the last video you clicked on, now only show that"

Immediately: "change entire algorithm to be this 1 video"

The videos on my feed, are the same like 4 videos EVERY DAY, I have literally thousands of subscribed channels. But the SAME 4 channels occupy multiple thumbnails on the youtube home screen.

How is it 2025, and the tech industry was "bUilT On AlGoRythMs!" and this is the best we got?

You can't even help the algortym in any way "dont show me this channel" .. "why?" .. "option 1. I have seen the video 2. I dont like the video"

That is NOT ENOUGH to make any database instructions.

I hate society so much i hope AI kills us all.

2025 and we're in the fuckn stone ages.

[Ekco]

they're so bad because they work so well on dumb people that are prone to addiction, it's the same shit as putting a bunch of random bullshit near the checkout counter at a store, they know impluse buying is a thing and they literally pay smart people millions of dollars to hack human brains and behavior for profit.

and now we don't even protect the kids from this shit, so fuck it, whatever.

Lol hell yea. I got my dad to read the Drizzt books and by the end of the first where Drizzt’s dad does something pretty heroic (being vague to not spoil anything for those that haven’t read it but might), of course my dad was hooked

Then later Pwent became his favorite character. We used to love how Bruenor would tell him to grease his armor but Pwent would always say (or think) that the blood of the enemies he shakes to pieces on it is the grease…

Nice video there, speaking of crotchety old man yelling at cloud...

Bro, I realized something rad after having a discussion with a Gen Z friend that has previously totally rejected all of my millennial/Gen X ways.

The reason Gen Z hates AI.. is because it takes attention away from all the shit Gen Z is currently nostalgic for.

Like, they spit in the face of my Gen X/Melinial ways, and now they are feeling society doing that about their lives that they're finding out nobody but themselves is interested in.

It makes my love of AI and the rage younger people are feeling about it SO MUCH BETTER.

I am so glad gen Z is getting hit with the time old "nobody cares about your ideas" phase of their lives.

LONG LIVE AI! SUCK IT TREBECK!

i'm actually torn on this, on one end it can't do any worse than most actual shrinks, but the chance it's gonna tell someone to do a flip when they bringing up wanting to jump is not 0%

Lol I always like the line from The Other Guys when the two cops are trying to talk that lawyer from jumping and Mark Wahlberg grabs the mic from Will Ferrell and says something like “look, we all know you are a loser who doesn’t have the balls to do it” or something like that. And Will Ferrell takes the mic back and says something like “no that’s actually worse than what I was saying” lol

I wouldn’t worry about the AI counselor. There is a big difference between academic counseling and actual counseling. Academic counseling has to stay on school related topics, problems with homework, problems with peers, problems with parents, stuff like that. An academic counselor can’t really help with anything not school related like suicidality (and that one requires liability insurance on the school, so I guarantee no school counselor or even a robot AI counselor is going to be giving recommendations on that, the school won’t want the liability of a kid offing themselves), substance abuse, outside of school maladaptive behaviors like criminality, sexuality (despite a lot of LGBT counselors and teachers wanting to discuss that), all sorts of non-school related problems

A human school counselor is SUPPOSED to tell a student and/or their parent “I can’t help you with this, you’re going to have to get a therapist outside of school” on any non-school related issue. Now there are a bunch who want to be a hero and try to help anyway with any issue. I’ve even seen school counselors legally adopt kids they counseled who were in the foster care system. But the school does not like it when a academic counselor steps out of their area in counseling and will not stand for it if they know
