From the post:

>The Colossus 2 supercomputer, together with its predecessor, Colossus 1, are used by xAI to primarily train and refine the company’s Grok large language model. In a post on X, Musk stated that Colossus 2 is already operational, making it the first gigawatt training cluster in the world. But what’s even more remarkable is that it would be upgraded to 1.5 GW of power in April. Even in its current iteration, however, the Colossus 2 supercomputer already exceeds the peak demand of San Francisco.

Anyone find it kind of weird they need that much power to try and fail to mimic a human brain?

I guess that also shows how fucking amazing the human brain (can) be.

Not weird, pathetic.

You make a good point though. When they dump that much resources into it and still fail they are clearly doing something wrong.
