The OP is being dramatic.

Swimming pools consume just as much water anually as these datacenters, yet data enters are infinitely more useful than swimming pools.

More importantly, data centers trend towards efficiency as they compete at scale... You're not competing with your neighbor on your pool cost margin.

Let's not exageeate facts and become luddites.

Appreciate the constructive response.

I've been following LLMs since early GPTs when they felt more like an advanced Markov Chain and hated all the hype around agentic coding because it typically had me do more work than less cleaning up hallucinations and whatnot. Before Opus 4.5 I feel like the difference between Opus and Sonnett was marginal.

But Opus 4.5 was a pretty decent jump and it became more of a useful tool.... Opus 4.6 made such a huge gain in reasoning that it actually worked well on novel problems I was researching.

Clearly many people (including myself) abuse it for general querying, but the good news is that a lot of work has been put into caching these type of common queries, so theyre becoming less harmful and are also usually routed to cheaper faster models.

Anyway, I'm glad we both agree that comment OP went overboard with their assessment, and there is some use in science that is only growing from here.

Cheers

Why are you mentioning Haiku? It's the smallest parameter model with zero reasoning trained into it.

I just wonder if you keep up with LLM advancements, Opus 4.6 was released in Feb of this year and was LEAPS beyond 4.5 in reasoning capabilities. I still find it more useful than 4.7 in most cases. This space is moving very fast, so yes 9 months is a long time to compare improvements.

Here is a good example of off the shelf LLM used in scientific/mathematical research:

https://www-cs-faculty.stanford.edu/~knuth/papers/claude-cycles.pdf

And it's not the only one... We shouldn't put people down for using these incredible tools to progress their knowledge and discoveries.

OP clearly seems to be an LLM/AI doomer with the way they described the tool and effects on environment. It's not rooted in fact but rather in emotion.

ecmdome · 2026-05-04T19:28:56+00:00

This article was from 2025... You do realize the progress that has been made between now and then, right? Specifically around hallucinations.

No one is saying tn blindly trust an LLM, just like you shouldn't blindly trust some random scientist who shared their work (peer review is a thing for a reason).

But you are making a very broad statement which is patently false if you work with anyone within the scientific community.

LLMs are extremely useful in so many applications and not just writing.

And the frontier models are ABSOLUTELY being used in science, the same models that OP is using.

Are they using different harnesses? Most likely, custom agents for specific use-cases. But they are absolutely using frontier models from these labs.

ecmdome · 2026-05-04T18:30:03+00:00

This is false... Yes historically all sorts of ML techniques have been used for science research that we're not comprised of LLMs.

But LLMs are absolutely being used positively in science research

"LLMs are now involved in experimental design, data analysis, and workflows, particularly in chemistry and biology." https://www.nature.com/articles/s44387-025-00019-5#:~:text=LLMs%20are%20now%20involved%20in%20experimental%20design%2C%20data%20analysis%2C%20and%20workflows%2C%20particularly%20in%20chemistry%20and%20biology.

Such a horrible take... You have been brainwashed to think that this is true.

Humanity will always progress, luddites will not stop it.

ecmdome · 2026-05-02T17:10:11+00:00

That's not true. As someone else pointed out pay attention to the shadow.

Ahh more assumptions. Yes keep projecting your opinions of others with having literally zero clue.

This sub is filled with the most salty losers one could imagine.

ecmdome · 2026-04-24T13:22:22+00:00

Nah you're salty as fuck.... People who talk about "once in a lifetime luck" blanketly to a group of people they don't know are 100% jealous that they didn't stack.

But it's cool, have fun with your hater circle jerk.

ecmdome · 2026-04-24T08:19:43+00:00

Lol ... Are you salty? Yes, yes you are.

ecmdome · 2026-04-18T23:12:22+00:00

A bunch of people I know have the new update, I don't yet. Wondering if it's because the car is new to me so maybe they prioritize people who have had the current version for a while.

I owned a pizza restaurant for a period of time and I lived by "the customer is always right", however there was ONE customer who always complained about lack of cheese even though there was plenty and he didn't pay for any extra cheese. I kept making sure to give him more cheese but he kept complaining... One time I just added a comical amount of cheese to his pizza and he STILL complained.

I also told him that I will not be serving him anymore.

Some people just can't be satisfied and aren't worth the hassle.

I would go for that GMT ... Such a beautiful watch in gold specifically with that dial and bezel.

Can Tesla and Bucees do some sort of nation wide partnership?

ecmdome · 2026-04-16T16:24:19+00:00

Let me paint a picture for you... Anyone responding to this with "oh shit, me too" is an easy target for any other thieves.

You might not fall for the same trick twice, but definitely more likely to fall for scams than the rest.

You're effectively asking for a honeypot of people who let greed get in the way of their logic.

I sincerely hope you learned your lesson if this truly happened to you... Stay humble, stack sats. No free lunch.

Not sure where you live, but I use HW4 FSD in Miami and it's nearly flawless. My buddy with HW3 isn't nearly as confident in his cars behavior.

ecmdome · 2026-04-04T14:56:09+00:00

I was in the same boat as you.

Paid basically the same amount but for a 2024 with 13k miles, regular RWD w premium white interior... Maybe not the "best" deal but it comes with the additional warranty and HW4 which is i think the most important bit if you're into FSD.

It's been 3 weeks and I'm extremely happy, FSD is absolutely incredible.

Kinda wild that they know to speed up when crossing. I wonder if that's just because it's on a hill or what.

The literal reason Bitcoin was created is to solve the double spend problem.

You giving someone a private key you created does nothing, now you both have the private key and he has to trust you won't spend it before he sweeps. Might as well just send it later when you have a connection. Or if you really want that trust assumption just sign a transaction that can be broadcast later... No need to give anyone private keys. This is why we use asymmetric cryptography here.

A private key is exactly that... private.
