"Home thinking kills the AI industry."
"You wouldn't imagine a pair of juicy titties."
"Have you know?" sounds like something a drunk AI would write
Watts ≠ watt hours
It is quite upsetting. I agree.
I get its a meme, but like, an AI would absolutely not use that much power to imagine some fat perky tits. Honestly they probably make up so much of the training data that it'd be the easiest thing for an AI to "imagine"
I know.
Enjoy the meme and don't overthink it
you can check out some training databases on hugging face, and there is 100s of gibs of porn there. it is one of the best ways to understand human antomy for image/video gen
So those people asking source links for science were actually real?
absolutely. were you not trusting their scientific integrity?
Watts are power not energy. It can be done with 12W it will just take longer.
The unit is correct. You can think about tits for as long as you want, and the human brain uses less power while doing so. Here's some improved wording:
The human brain uses 12W while it thinks about tities whereas AI doing the same thing uses 2.7 GW.
The major change was from "to" to "while", and I would argue that those words can actually mean the same thing:
"A person uses 100W to ride a bicycle" means the same thing as "A person uses 100 watts while riding a bicycle.
So, I would conclude that the meme is fine.
No. 2.7GW is not possible for that. For reference the whole of France is 150GW
Your comment only criticized the unit. I was only talking about the unit. Why are you changing the subject? Obviously the number is wrong.
Not to be pedantic or pro ai, but what about the people who cannot visualize in their heads? It's a real condition.
I damn, I never thought of that... You know what, I am just going to sit here and think about tits for the next ten minutes just for my bros who can't.
pour out a tit-daydream for those that can’t
That's what rule34 is for.
Fair and true.
Aphantasia would be the name. I mostly never have images that I can see in my mind, sometimes I get quick flashes, but that's about it really. I didn't realize for the longest time that not everyone is like me and that only about 1-4% of people have aphantasia.
A co-worker of mine also claimed to have that but I really can't understand how that works or how you could think at all without images. He couldn't explain it to me either, maybe you can.
How to you e.g. remember a route to a certain location in your city? What happens in your head if we played a pen and paper roleplaying game? What happens when you hear an audiobook or read a book? How do you dream? What if I ask you what your best friend looks like, how can you describe him without an image?
First, like many things, aphantasia is a spectrum where some have no mental picture at all while others have fuzzy or dim mental pictures. I feel that I'm more towards the end where there is very little mental picture. When I am able to mentally picture something it fades very quickly and usually isn't very detailed or at least I can't tell how detailed it is due to how fast an image fades. I also usually can't try to recall the image again, I just kinda get nothing. Most of the time when I close my eyes and try to visualize something it's just a dark/black velvety nothingness.
Trust me, it's weird to me too. I think I tend to think in concepts and logic chains or it's more like I'm telling a story in my mind or basically a fairly constant internal monologue, although it does quiet down at times.
I've always had a hard time creating art, because I can't picture in my mind what I want to create or at least I can't hold a glimpse of an image for more than a fraction of a second if at all, so that makes it hard to try to sit down and draw anything from my mind. However, I have found that I'm able to create art when it's more abstract or I take a shape and just play with it, I usually like to say I have an exploratory or experimental approach to creating art where I've learned how to use the tools (e.g. photoshop) and will try to think of creative ways to use the tools to manipulate something like a concentric set of squares or circles. I really enjoy making op art.
Weirdly, I have very good spatial awareness and memory of where things are located, but it's not based off of imagery, it seems to be based off of directional relationships and where something is in relation to my body's orientation in space. It's all very difficult to put into words as language can be quite limiting.
How do I remember a route? It takes me a while really, but I think again it's all sort of base off of proximity/directional and spatial relationships. I would liken it to walking around in your house when it's really dark and you can't see anything in front of you, but you know to get to the bathroom you can go forward for a few steps then turn to your left, take two steps, and then take a right. When it comes to cardinal directions, I usually learn where some big landmarks are around town and I usually have what feels like an intuition as to where I am in relation to a landmark and from there I can figure out what direction North is. I don't really know if any of that is a good explanation or not.
Tabletop RPGs, reading, and audio books are definitely difficult for me. I didn't know for the longest time that when people read books it can be like a movie is playing in their mind. I don't get any of that and I think that's why I've always struggled with books keeping my attention as I'm purely just reading the words and hearing them as my internal monologue says them to me in my mind. I did better with tabletop RPGs when there was a map with a grid on it and when we used mini figs.
I would also struggle to be able to describe what my best friends look like apart from basic descriptions such as hair color, height, general body size/shape, but I couldn't describe specifics of their face. I don't have face blindness though, I know someone that has that and that is a completely different experience than what I have. If all you did was ask me to describe a friend, I'd probably talk more about their personality, interests, and things we have in common before I'd give physical attributes.
Weirdly enough, when I do dream it's incredibly vivid and sometimes even cinematic feeling. I do lose memories of my dreams quite quickly and it usually feels like most nights I don't dream, but I can't really tell if it's just because the memory of the dream fades so quickly or if I actually didn't dream. I have experienced lucid dreaming before, I tend to lose it pretty easily and still have trouble conjuring things that aren't already in the current "scene" of the dream.
What's easiest for me to picture in my mind is strong memories, but even then it's pretty brief.
You didn't ask, but psychedelics have been very interesting to me and they have caused closed eye hallucinations for me, but it was almost always abstract geometric shapes and colors. The trips that I've had are basically the only times I've ever had imagery in my mind when I closed my eyes and it stayed visible for long periods of time.
Thanks for asking about this as it's always an interesting exercise in trying to better explain my internal experience and I feel like I get a little better at explaining it every time, but it's still pretty difficult.
Thank you for explaining. To some questions my coworker gave very similar answers. I guess the spectrum thing clicked for me though. I also can't hold very detailed images in my mind for too long but for a while it usually works. I guess artists are really good at this. I remember having to learn knots for a boating license and I tried to practice some of the more difficult knots 'visually' in my mind the nights before the exam... That was super difficult to imagine correctly.
When I try to remember a route somewhere I have images of landmarks in my mind and I can almost mentally walk parts of the route. However, I'm very bad at navigating in general and that also often leads to me getting lost and then it's more like vaguely feelings of "hmm, I've been here before" that lead me back on track.
Spatially I'm totally lost and I often get super confused how different paths are connected. My wife is super good at this and it's often like she opens a portal and we somehow get from one place to another that where totally distinct in my mind.
What kind of psychedelics did you use? I've had some experiences as well. Good and bad ones. Almost no visuals though.
I'll do it for them for free. You're welcome, animaniacs or whatever they're called
Fair.
The same thing they did pre ai.
so my brain is a machine that turns calories into mental images of hella fat tiddies but not a GODDAMN DROP OF SERATONIN
If huge bombin' gnorks don't wring a drop of serotonin outta ya, then your soul has the problem, not the boob machine.
Huge Bombin' Gnorks would make a great band name.
May I use this name for my next Doom Ska band.
That sounds awesome. Sax player will have a pedal board that makes the guitar guy feel inadequate.
It's not about "may", you have to.
guess gay men have no soul now
Do gay gingers have infinite soul?
And so much faster than AI too. As soon as I finished reading the word "tits", there they were, motorboating my mind's eye.
So a quick google says it uses 70 millivolts.
Which means the human brain has a metric fuckton of amperage (probably explains the heat)
285 Amps.
To safely carry that current you need 95mm2 of copper wire.
9.5cm X 9.5cm
So cubed, because 2d doesn't make sense is approximately 1000cm3
The human brain is 1300cm3
That means the human brain is just one fat copper wire
It's a shame we can't up the voltage a little bit and save on brain size
I mean you can. Most states have outlawed it now and it doesn't improve performance much.
it is wrong, kinda. It would be correct if brains worked like a electrical conductor, but we are more like batteries (so ions move under electrochemical potential). in short, W = V I does not apply here.
If it did, the amount of heat produced would be humongous.
here is a reddit thread I found about this - https://www.reddit.com/r/askscience/comments/5ijvvd/what_is_the_amperage_of_the_human_nervous_system/
I mean fuck AI but that's clearly a made up number. The amount of energy used during training maybe? But not running a model.
Not energy, watts are power. Doesn't make any sense
Giggity-Watts
True
but computers can calculate a 9857408293304297*3729892093829/3809389312893382 in less than 10 ms using microwatts of energy, and humans would need a solid hours (at best minutes i presume)
Okay, but now let's add AI to the calculator so it can guess instead of calculate it and we can increase the power draw thousand-fold.
Bro... just don't gove big tech company idea, you want them to stealing brain from grave ?
I just did it
You perv.
Out of curiosity, how many watts did my brain just consume contemplating the nose, flavor profile, mouth feel, food pairing selection, and post-dining cordial choices of said titties?
