I don't even know what to say. How can you make jokes when reality already is making them for you? Have we finally entered The Onion Timeline?

[–] 10001110101@lemm.ee 21 points 15 hours ago

but it turns out all that cash was going toward a workforce of over 700 Indian engineers, rather than an AI.

I doubt much of that cash was going to their workforce. Should have though.

On the internet no one knows you are 700 Indian engineers.

I'm picturing a room of people with protractors ray tracing Doom.

I've got so indian answers from perplexity, and from chatgpt too... so this is why!

What do you mean the new llm I invested in is just 700 Indians in a trench coat?!

[–] GenosseFlosse@feddit.org 127 points 1 day ago (4 children)

AI stands for "actually indians"?

[–] SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.world 8 points 16 hours ago

All Indians.

Crazy that 700 professionals in india is cheaper than a compute/data centre.

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 4 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

a data center isnt cheap, probably cost billions, a year to operate or millions. plus all the side effects, like power requirement and water waste.

[–] RaptorBenn@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago

I can run a small model on my home pc, if i had access to those kinds of resources, i could run a AI data centre for profit, probably more rssource efficient than those 700 dudes as well.

[–] milicent_bystandr@lemm.ee 71 points 1 day ago (6 children)

700 professionals in India probably make more coherent software than AI.

Next do "self driving cars"

[–] SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.world 5 points 16 hours ago

Check the trunk for an Indian guy with a street map.

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 11 points 23 hours ago

You mean the 40 horsepower is actually 40 Indians under the hood??
