It's one tiny animation, Michael, what could it cost, 70%?
There are always tokens in the nano banana stand.
GPU usage drops from 70% to 3% by hiding side bar, Thanks alot.
It’s like they’re trying to maximize power consumption even by their users.
There is something rather ironic with slopbros getting upset about resource usage. Can’t quite put my finger on what though. Guess I need to outsource my thinking to an LLM.
And the "fix" is to add an option to hide the spinner:
Job done! Everybody go home!
Somebody's listening :) The don't burn my house down customization feature has been added in the latest toaster firmware.
What a waste of power and water. Hilarious...
Just power, unless you evaporatively cool your home pc.
Probably AI written code.
I fucking knew it
It's about 70% utilization and up to 1.5 W power on my M4 Pro
Ok so either Apple GPUs are the crazyiest crap on the market, or this dude's power sensor is broken... or both.
Same as the discord typing animation
That one is rendered on the CPU.
If you have a client that supports Vencord mods, you can disable it with this.
It's funnier cause it's not a LLM running on his PC that's causing it

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.
