There is only a nature article about "low carbon emission" (Was: Holy Shit: AI is cheaper than Humans)

Show all headers | View raw

I didn't find yet a paper that proofs "cheapness"
related to humans, only a paper about "low carbon
emission" related to humans:

 > The carbon emissions of writing and illustrating
 > are lower for AI than for humans
 > https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-024-54271-x

And that costs go down is mentioned only
in a vague tweet, even not related to humans:

 > Perplexity CEO Aravind Srinivas says that the cost per

 > 2 years and quality will improve as hallucinations
 > decrease 10x per year

So I wrote:

"low carbon emission" can be an indicative of low
price. But not necessarely. It could be also an
indicative of "green" production of AI. And maybe

the problem is that humans are not that "green",
it could be easier to make a computing center "green",
than a city full of humans. Also the nature

article could be some fake news propaganda.

So still waiting for more information...
