hello I will not be creating art if it does not generate a profit for me personally, the artists I work along side of, are only useful to me so long as I am making a profit. I cannot wait to replace the people who work for and with me with computers.

seriously you're there fucking employer, you're just saying you can't wait to fire them.

you know how you constantly see little reminders of how bad cryptocurrancies are for the environment, blahblahblah, yeah? imagine how much energy goes into generating each chatgpt response, or each 30-60 second AI video, I think I've only seen that mentioned in one article and it was on some independent outlet.

someone create an AI that washes dishes so I dont have to work anymore.

I mean, it could also be because he’s worried there will be no business for him and making this investment now will bankrupt him. What’s he supposed to do with 12 new sound stages when investors don’t want to put up their money for traditional production when AI based tools cost a fraction?

But sure, anytime AI gets mentioned we should all be triggered because that’s what you have been programmed to do.

God, I can’t believe you made me defend Tyler Perry and AI…

Improvements to energy consumption are being implemented each generation. Online image generation is estimated at 2.9Wh per instance.

However, for example, Stable Diffusion XL Turbo is closer to 0.1Wh per instance. The push to market always beats the push for optimization.
