Truly my greatest professional joy is that, not only did we get to build a tool to help people stop AI bots from scraping up their work without consent, I was able to have our in-house artist create a SLOP sign to mark the spot where the bots expire.

If you are a non-profit or open source project that does good internet stuff, we’ll protect you for free. If not, then you can pay us money and we will hook you up. Either way, good tools to put you in control over the bots. https://www.fastly.com/blog/take-back-control-make-ai-bots-play-by-your-rules

Presenting my horror short indie film for tonight: I am in the basement folding laundry and the cat keeps getting riled up and then freezing and staring fixedly over my shoulder towards the empty room behind me, watching something.

I came across information that the original quote in Futurism which said 99% electricity use was incorrect.
https://futurism.com/google-ceo-congress-electricity-ai-superintelligence

The transcript says “3% to 9%”.

The larger point remains, though. AI and data center energy and water use is surging, and we are only at the beginning of this whole thing. For years, data centers energy use stayed below 1% and we were told not to worry. In countries like Ireland, data center energy use is now already over 20%

Recently people have told me they don't need my help they can get AI to code.
