“I wonder how much money Openai has lost in the electricity costs of the people who say ‘please’ and ‘thanks’ to their models.”
It was a Apparently random question raised by a user in X (previously Twitter), but the CEO of Operai, Sam Altman, He jumped to answer That writing those words has joined “dozens of millions of dollars well spent, you never know.”
Judging by Altman’s ironic tone, it is probably safe to assume that he did not make a precise calculation. But his response led to futurism to Speculate if it is actually a loss of time and electricity to be educated for chatgpt and other generative chatbots.
Apparently, being educated with AI is not just an unnecessary habit, anthropomorphism out of place or fear of our future computer lords. Instead, Kurt Beavers, director of the Microsoft Copilot design team, said That “using educated language establishes a tone for the answer”, and that when a model of AI “records courtesy, it is more likely to be polite back.”
That said, Blasphymia has its usesalso.
