"The greatest risk is that large language models act as a form of ‘shock doctrine’, where the sense of world-changing urgency that accompanies them is used to transform social systems without democratic debate".

@danmcquillan I could not agree more with all of this.

danmcquillan,

@dawnnafus Thanks Dawn, that's very affirming, especially as I see you're in the AI biz yourself. What readings would you recommend on decarbonising high tech and infrastructures? I'm trying to clue myself up a bit more.

@danmcquillan Excellent question! I'm trying to do some writing on this very topic now. I'm currently drawing inspiration from the "Computing Within Limits" https://computingwithinlimits.org/2022/ papers, and the growing community (https://permacomputing.net/). I've just started "Insolvent" by @cbecker and can't say enough good things about "Digital Energetics" by @zgtcooper and @Aepasek. My stuff focuses on carbon-aware orchestration, really not AI, until it's AI. https://www.mdpi.com/1996-1073/14/21/6917
