<h2 class="titlebar">Why future AI will devolve the human race</h2>
|
|
It's no secret that AI already has made a substantial impact on our modern lives.<br>
|
|
For some of us, "AI" has become just another tool that helps us trough the day.
|
|
If one donsn't know something, if one can't formulate a letter or if they want a creepy picture of a cat wearing a suit, AI is there to help!<br><br>
|
|
|
|
Many people (mostly elderly) see AI as the new human invention down the line. Maschines replaced hard labour, cars and trains replaced horses,
|
|
computers replaced even more. Man's invention has made life easier.<br>
|
|
But is AI the next big thing that will finally replace the human brain?<br><br>
|
|
|
|
Taking a look at it: <b>Yes</b><br>
|
|
Nobody needs to write an E-Mail in coorperate speech. Just write what you want and the AI will transform it for you.<br>
|
|
No time to respond to a text? Don't worry! AI can create a reply based on your personality and preferences.<br>
|
|
Why research an article when AI can do it for you and even present it in a nice summarized way.<br>
|
|
I could go on forever, what AI will and already has replaced in our daily lives.<br><br>
|
|
|
|
But let's take a look at one specific example:<br>
|
|
ChatGPT or as some will also call it the "Bullshit Generator" has made a substantial impact on our school system.<br>
|
|
Many studends, instead of doing their own homework, let the AI do it for them.<br>
|
|
One may argue, that Google-Search had a similar impact but I disagree with that. Researching ones topic and getting help on the internet
|
|
is no different than learning it by book. By Google-Search one still needs to <u>research</u> the topic and still has to <u>manually</u> solve ones problem.
|
|
That's why we go to school! To solve the problems by <u>ourselves</u> and not rely on others to do it for us.<br><br>
|
|
|
|
ChatGPT and other Language-Based-Models have had a negative impact on studends. Instead of <u>doing the work by themselves</u> the AI does it for them, which <u>doesn't teach the student!</u>.<br><br>
|
|
|
|
A particular problem with for example ChatGPT is, that these Language models <u>don't understand their response</u>. ChatGPT is just a word predictor on steroids.
|
|
Dependent on the input and already generated text, the Language model <i>predicts</i> the next word to output.<br><br><hr><br>
|
|
|
|
<b>But let's change the topic</b> as I can rant about this forever.<br><br>
|
|
Everyone always talks about the <i>environment</i>, how we need so save energy. We have to switch off the lights, turn off the computer and drive less.
|
|
But they seem to forget, that cloud services like YouTube, Google and ChatGPT draw alot of power and <b>water</b>.<br>
|
|
Comparing a simple Google Search to a ChatGPT query, we see that a Google Search consumes around 0.3 watt-hours of power while a ChatGPT query consumes 2.9 watt-hours (<a href="https://www.goldmansachs.com/insights/articles/AI-poised-to-drive-160-increase-in-power-demand"><i>source</i></a>).<br>
|
|
This is a near 1000% increase in power consumption!<br><br>
|
|
As time goes on, these Large-Language-Models will evolve further and grow, which of course will increase their power consumption.<br><br><br>
|
|

|
Thank you for reading.
