We will secure energy dominance by dumping even more money and resources into a technology that is already straining our power grid. But don’t worry. The LLM will figure it all out by reciting the Wikipedia page for Fusion Power.
Turns out it’s not good to assume that literally every word that comes out of a tech billionaire’s mouth is true. Now everyone else thinks they can get away with just rattling off numbers where their source is they made it the fuck up. I still remember Elon Musk saying a decade ago that he could make rockets 1,000 times cheaper, and so many people just thought it was going to happen.
We need scientists and engineers. We do not need Silicon Valley billionaire visionary innovator genius whizzes with big ideas who are pushing the frontiers of physics with ChatGPT.
The anthropomorphic personification of magnetohydrodynamics materializes from the ether to laugh in their faces
You know they meant they’d ask a chatbot
