“I wonder how much Openai money has lost in the electricity costs of people who say” please “and” thank you “to their models.”
It was an apparently random question asked by a user on X (formerly Twitter), but the CEO of Openai, Sam Altman, jumped to answer that typing increased to “tens of millions of dollars well spent – you never know”.
Judging by the ironic tone of Altman, it is probably sure to assume that he did not do any precise calculation. But his response encouraged futurism to speculate to find out if it was in fact a waste of time and electricity to be polished with pussy and other generative AI chatbots.
Apparently, being polite with AI is not only a useless habit, the displaced anthropomorphism or the fear of our future computer suzerains. Instead, Kurt Beavers, director of the design team of Microsoft Copilot Copilot, said that “the use of polished language gives the answer a tone”, and that when a model of AI “clock the politeness, it is more likely to be polite”.
That said, blasphemy also has its uses.
