KDE Eco talks about genai (floss.social)

Given its extremely high energy and water consumption, the increased minimum system requirements driving premature hardware obsolescence, among other very problematic social and political issues, genAI/LLMs are not compatible with the values and goals of KDE Eco.

KDE is a diverse community and the opinions and projects of some KDE contributors are not representative of the entire community or KDE Eco projects.

10-second responses you can fit 360 replies per hour, for a total of 1.8kWh per hour, ideally.

I find it kinda hard to believe that a prompt takes up an entire server for a full 10 seconds. That does not seem in any way scalable.

context-switching is expensive, but you are right that 10 seconds may be too long. i just pulled something.

then again they've optimised the size of the machines to the point that a single rack can fit more than 100 blade servers, and a dc can have a thousand racks.
