    Oh, and now you need a new fucking degree to learn how to ‘optimize your token usage with well crafted prompts the machine can understand’ otherwise you’ll burn through the energy Cleveland uses in a year, and end up costing the company millions.

    Dumbest fucking bubble so far other than tulips and beanie babies

      No it’s dumber. Beanie babies at least left you with a little doll kids could enjoy.

      In some companies, ‘optimize your token usage’ means using as many tokens as possible.

        Indeed.

        “AI is good” became “Good employees use AI” became “The more AI the better” became “The more tokens used the better the employee.”

        What’s incredible is that none of these are self-evidently true premises, but rich C-suite aliens managed to buy into the entire illogical chain.

      Two things…

      1. Is…is Cleveland known for high energy usage? I don’t get the reference.

      2. Tulips had a bubble? I’m so confused.
