reminds me of the time when something with Amazon was Indian employees
I don’t even know what to say. How can you make jokes when reality already is making them for you? Have we finally entered The Onion Timeline?
I’ve got so indian answers from perplexity, and from chatgpt too… so this is why!
I wonder how they would answer if asked about Kashmir
Anyone remember Cha-Cha?
but it turns out all that cash was going toward a workforce of over 700 Indian engineers, rather than an AI.
I doubt much of that cash was going to their workforce. Should have though.
“Sachin! Quick, look up the best way to impress a first date who is vegetarian!”
On the internet no one knows you are 700 Indian engineers.
"Welcome back to tonight’s episode of “Is it AI or 700 Indian Engineers!!” 👏🏾👏🏾 👏🏾
I’m picturing a room of people with protractors ray tracing Doom.
What do you mean the new llm I invested in is just 700 Indians in a trench coat?!
AI stands for “actually indians”?
All Indians.
I’m waiting for “generalized” actually Indians
You mean A Guy Instead?
IP is “Infact Pakistanis”
And what’s TCP/IP?
Todays Chosen Pakistani/Instant Pakistani
Always Infosys
Goodbye! Onto the next one
Next do “self driving cars”
Check the trunk for an Indian guy with a street map.
You mean the 40 horsepower is actually 40 Indians under the hood??
in a trench coat
Crazy that 700 professionals in india is cheaper than a compute/data centre.
a data center isnt cheap, probably cost billions, a year to operate or millions. plus all the side effects, like power requirement and water waste.
I can run a small model on my home pc, if i had access to those kinds of resources, i could run a AI data centre for profit, probably more rssource efficient than those 700 dudes as well.
700 professionals in India probably make more coherent software than AI.
100%, but i dont think that will stay true for too long.
Of course. Just one more nuclear reactor bro, just one more trillion dollars investment bro
Oh is that what itll cost? /s
Yeah. Trust me on this, bro
In the meantime. This is a valid business model.
Depends what you mean by “valid”. If you mean “profitable”, sure: Fraud has always been a profitable business model.
But if you mean “valid” in terms of what Microsoft got out of their $455M investment, not so much, as they wanted a great new AI model, not the output that the “human-powered” model produced pretending to be an AI.
They should have had 701
