Hopefully we can avoid a repeat of the cryptomining-GPU situation.
We get over one bullshit situation with grifters trying to make a quick buck through a scam, only to land on another one. Absolutely amazing.
At least AI companies are producing something that has some potential value (even if it is wildly over inflated) as opposed to the literal vapor ware we got with crypto
Unfortunately it’s not a grift this time. The crypto bros finally moved on from Blockchain to actually useful tech.
I’ll be worried when AI-controlled companies start buying them up
That’s a concept I didn’t even think of until now, thanks. AI CEOs and executives. Now THAT’S a bit terrifying.
You might enjoy the sci-fi novel
‘Accelerando’ by Charles Stross - or you might find it a bit disturbingIt depends. Maybe the AI-version will be actually useful?
Well, the work AI companies are doing with these is more inherently useful, so that’s a benefit.
Almost anything is better than just speculating while wasting power, but I’m not thrilled either if it’s for apps/spyware to deepfake and the like.
