    Not to be pedantic or pro ai, but what about the people who cannot visualize in their heads? It’s a real condition.

    I mean fuck AI but that’s clearly a made up number. The amount of energy used during training maybe? But not running a model.

    And so much faster than AI too. As soon as I finished reading the word “tits”, there they were, motorboating my mind’s eye.

    Out of curiosity, how many watts did my brain just consume contemplating the nose, flavor profile, mouth feel, food pairing selection, and post-dining cordial choices of said titties?

      The unit is correct. You can think about tits for as long as you want, and the human brain uses less power while doing so. Here’s some improved wording:

      The human brain uses 12W while it thinks about tities whereas AI doing the same thing uses 2.7 GW.

      The major change was from “to” to “while”, and I would argue that those words can actually mean the same thing:

      “A person uses 100W to ride a bicycle” means the same thing as "A person uses 100 watts while riding a bicycle.

      So, I would conclude that the meme is fine.

  • I get its a meme, but like, an AI would absolutely not use that much power to imagine some fat perky tits. Honestly they probably make up so much of the training data that it’d be the easiest thing for an AI to “imagine”

    So a quick google says it uses 70 millivolts.

    Which means the human brain has a metric fuckton of amperage (probably explains the heat)

    285 Amps.

    To safely carry that current you need 95mm2 of copper wire.

    9.5cm X 9.5cm

    So cubed, because 2d doesn’t make sense is approximately 1000cm3

    The human brain is 1300cm3

    That means the human brain is just one fat copper wire

    It’s a shame we can’t up the voltage a little bit and save on brain size
