Chipp Chatter - How Thirsty is AI, Not so Boring AI, and How to Sell AI Apps
This week dive into the small amount of water powering AI and learn to sell AI app bundles and build mobile apps in seconds.
AI is moving quickly. 💨
Here are the highlights from the week that was in AI and Chipplandia and our spicy takes on what it actually means:
AI Highlights from Around the Web
Small Language Models: The $57 Billion AI Secret Everyone Missed
While everyone was talking about GPT-5, NVIDIA quietly dropped a game-changing insight: Small Language Models (SLMs) are the real future of AI agents. They're cheaper, faster, and handle 80% of real-world tasks just as well as the big models.
🌶️ As models get more specific they may become smaller (and cheaper) just like computers in the 80’s and 90’s.
AI Writing Isn't as Cookie-Cutter as We Thought
Ethan Mollick shared fascinating research showing that AI actually writes just as diversely as humans when given proper context and prompts. The assumption that AI creates boring, similar content? Turns out that's not true!
🌶️ We may not be as creative as we like to think. Great data builds great AI. Share diverse inspiration to get AI that’s less robot and more fun.
Why 95% of AI Projects Are Failing at Companies
MIT research reveals that 95% of companies investing in generative AI still don't see real results. The study found that generic chat tools work great for individuals but struggle inside companies because they can't learn company data or processes.
🌶️ AI adoption is a human change problem. Put AI where people work and provide training and time to share to make it stick.
The Great AI Water Debate: Much Ado About Nothing?
Andy Masley breaks down the misleading headlines about AI's water usage. While experts claim Google is hiding the truth about water consumption, the real numbers show each AI prompt uses about as much water as... well, basically nothing compared to daily life.
🌶️ The growth of AI can improve our environment by pushing renewal power forward with tremendous speed. The end result is an energy grid of abundance for all even if you’re not using AI.
