@miki@dragonscave.space I'm referring more to the resources that organisations put into trying to be part of this - money, people, time, strategy - rather than the resources used by the actual machines. But that could've been clearer, sorry.

    @jcsteh@aus.social Yeah, that part you're not wrong about. There are a couple of orgs for which being "part of the AI revolution" absolutely makes sense (Google comes to mind), but I 100% agree about the rest. It's not always obvious which kind you are, though. In hintsight, the crypto revolution was best avoided unless you work with international payments / 3rd-world countries, while anybody who avoided the mobile and internet revolutions is no longer with us, and may they rest in peace. Maybe this is just inevitable, maybe it's better to potentially waste some resources than to potentially face irrelevance.
