Yann LeCun ponders: twitter.com/ylecun/status/1692

"Assuming à 2% annual growth, humanity's entire power consumption will surpass:
- the entire power sent by the sun to earth in 360 years.
- the entire supply of fissile material in about 900 years.
- the entire supply of deuterium in the oceans in about 1000 years."

This assumes that energy consumption follows directly economic growth (has not been true for some time).

But lets assume that is true and human population growth will settle below 15 billion (that seems to be the case).

It would mean that each person consumes the energy equivalent of 1600 MW nuclear reactor in less than 400 years.

Yann LeCun said with glee
"AI's not dangerous, it's me!"
No need to fear it
Cos if it ain't fit
Don't build it, and safety you'll see

I sympathize with criticizing almost single-handedly hype at its peak, but his is at best another incremental step.

To his credit , he doesn’t claim much more, as opposed to

Notice how silent or has fallen during the OpenAI hype. They do moderation and recommendation on their platforms and know the huge gaps in .

And no, is not going to fix anything.

You just add text learning to other modes. You make it more complicated.
