"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

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.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

As an American I appreciate how they included both metric (Joules) and imperial (hours running a microwave) measurements

I only know how long bald eagles burn for.
How do I convert microwave hours to bald eagle burn time (in number of football games including all dead ball times and the halftime shows)?

(in number of football games including all dead ball times and the halftime shows)

Wait are we talking mid-day NFL, primetime (SNF/MNF/TNF/Playoffs), or Superbowl? Or are you talking CFB, and if so is it one of the big conference games or is it only showing on ESPN+?

Yes

....taking into account up to 5 testicles at 60mph, but take away 3 standard rats (not McDonald's rats) to the power of 3 number 2 pencils HD if using mechanical pencils. That comes out to 37burnt eagles and 3 frozen yogurts.

Oh I forgot to divide by the length of a Phillips screw driver! That's right!

Anyhow it would be running a microwave at 944 watt for an hour 😁
