If you run it on your own hardware then you know exactly how much energy it's using. Some of the models can even run on the average computer, but the quality is not great.

The problem we have right now is where everyone is trying to use generative AI for everything, all the time, even for basic takes such as googling for a fact, simple math that could be done on a calculator, etc. They're also often using the latest and greatest AI models, which are powerful and spend a lot of processing power each time. In order to run the servers to respond to all that, companies use a large amount of power, and then use water to cool the servers. That's the water usage from what I understand.

So if you use a simpler / more efficient model, and only use it for tasks where it's better than conventional tools, you'll be doing much better power usage wise.

Neat, thanks :)

Do you have a similar list for other categories (paid, optional cosmetic IAP)

You could post this to !bikinibottomtwitter@lemmy.world

@AnonomousWolf@lemmy.world I've added some more context around the screenshot. Would you be able to replace it with your recent article link?

Ah ok, you might want to update the post title and URL fields with this article's link and the article's title. Else the mods will likely remove it, see the community rules

The article you linked doesn't confirm the current title you have up

I'm not sure if those sources are any better since I can't find anything about them. According to the other comment, there should be other articles about this case since it was on their national news for some time.

Also, some of those articles are dated from 1 year ago. Is there a reason you're posting this now, such as new updates? Else it would be against the community rules

Edit: The articles I found suggest that the father admitted to it, while the brothers deny involvement and there is another hearing coming up. What I found weird though was the screenshot states the brothers involvement as a fact.

I looked around for the logo on the screenshot, and it seems to be this organization

https://catalyticministries.com/

This other source (which I'm also unfamiliar with) points out that this organization is controversial

https://ministrywatch.com/global-catalytic-ministries-hides-behind-veil-of-secrecy/

It also summarizes the purpose of the org above:

GCM offers varying descriptions of its work, many of them characterized by grandiose but unverified claims, such as “transforming Muslims worldwide,” “750 churches planted throughout the Middle East and Central Asia,” and “bringing disciple-making methods to the West to build a decentralized network of discipleship communities that will prepare America for the end time harvest.”

Which makes the source seem, less credible...

Going off of the last paragraph, it sounds like this happened in the Netherlands

It doesn't help if this was a long time ago, but you could contest the ticket with the information you gathered.

I know someone who got a ticket but the sign was obscured by a tree branch. After contesting the ticket, the ticket was dropped and the signage was fixed

Cool!

I love the UI for this one, it's unique compared to the others

Thanks!

This comment is being reported. Did you mean to post a different link?

Looks good!

No worries, I like the meme 😄

Yes! That's what !medicine@mander.xyz is intended for :) I've run into a handful of medical professionals here, but we don't have regular discussion posts yet and so it's mostly news articles.

That community also has an informal relationship with the one on reddit, where we were in contact with the mods there.

Please feel free to share any thoughts or stories in that community :)

What kind of uses did you have for it?

I think they're looking for local "AI" anyway. Since those work directly on your machine, there's no concern around trust (nothing leaves your device) and the resource cost is whatever your hardware uses, or was already using.

There are some concerns still with local models, such as any biases in the training data that was used, but for image classification it wouldn't be that bad.

It depends on the client

Some apps / frontends support it and others don't

😦

Well, it's a win win. You can have them

I was coming into this thread to mention buttered popcorn flavor jellybeans.

It was bad.

Hi, it looks like your post got posted twice and is getting reported. You could delete one of them?
