Researchers have developed a new kind of nanoelectronic device that could dramatically cut the energy consumed by artificial intelligence hardware by mimicking the human brain.
The researchers, led by the University of Cambridge, developed a form of hafnium oxide that acts as a highly stable, low‑energy ‘memristor’ — a component designed to mimic the efficient way neurons are connected in the brain.
Shooting a large rocket full of tech bros directly in to the sun will have a similar effect.
Shooting a rocket directly into the sun would waste as much energy as current AI data centers, because it would have to shed all the earth’s momentum.
Better to just use a volcano.
We can sell tickets for people to take turns pushing. A dollar per participant sounds reasonable to me.
Oh great, now we’re gonna start polluting the sun? Can’t we contain our garbage to a single planet?
All of the things you’d be polluting the sun with are already there.
