Why is there this push to use AI everywhere when it's so resource-heavy? What do Google, MS etc gain?
Data mining.
I wonder how it can be worth the extra cost on CPU/GPU time, compared to search of mail.
I might type "best value Jacuzzi" into Google, but "write a python script to sort numbers", or "write a message sounding like I'm actually sorry to not go to someone's party", or "this sentence is a lie" into an AI.
I can only see one of those being valuable.
