Yann LeCun, Meta’s longtime chief AI scientist, quit and said LLMs are a “dead end” because scaling text-only models can’t produce real intelligence, and he's not the only one who thinks so. Lots of engineers understand the limitations of LLMs.
Xfce already exists
Maybe but most consumers, but I'm not. I don't have a smart toaster or fridge or even tv (I bought a dumb panel, it was cheaper). I honestly hate all of that so called smart bs. "Smart" tvs take longer to turn on than my dumb panel. And cost more. For features I literally don't want.
But yeah, to each their own!
And after the transformer rush it'll be something else
When did they ever care? I mean, besides valve I guess.
Datacenters aren't helping, but they're like 3-4% of emissions. It's still manufacturing plastic crap and shipping across the ocean with bunker fuel burn causing 60% of it.

Good thing I know how to use VPNs
If you're only doing that now...
Jokes aside, I loved Freelancer and that was Microsoft
And it'll happen again and again and again
