It is indeed very suspicious that they talk about “median” and not “average”.
For those who don’t understand what the difference is, think of the following numbers:
1, 2, 3, 34, 40
The median is 3, because it’s in the middle.
The average is 16 (1+2+3+34+40=80, 80/5=16).
To waste electric energy. All those power plants produce immense amounts of energy that needs to be consumed. If we didn’t have LLMs, the pollution of those plants would be for nothing. At least now, there is an attempt to put it in good use.

I am occasionally getting hired by vibe coders, to fix their AI’s mess. It’s not ego. AI is just not smart enough to replace my job, and many others.
My anti-AI rage is caused by the marketing, trying to convince people and investors that AI can do the work of humans with lower cost. Many companies, especially those developing software, fired a large percentage of the work force, and then they were trying to hire them back to fix the AI’s shit.
Another reason for my hate is its energy needs. There was another post, that was talking about an estimation on how much energy GPT-5 needs. It’s thought that it needs the power of 2 nuclear reactors. This much energy to barely be able to do any job.
Google doesn’t spy only the web. There are some pretty common and completely legal devices, that Google takes advantage of to spy in people’s everyday life. Those devices are called Android phones.
