A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

Gpt 4 had a training cost of $78 million. Gta5 cost $300 million. 4000 developers each with the latest GPU burning hundreds of watts per employee to create the assets. A rough estimate of 750watt pc, 4,000 developers, 8 hour a day, 300 days a year, 5 years = 36 giga watt-hours. That's the energy to power 3.6 million homes for a year and I'm not even including the HVAC costs of the office space.
For 1 game.
I'm not a big fan of AAA development, so thanks for another reason to hate that shit. Retvrn to ASCII
