The Shape of Things to Come, Part 2: Model Welfare for Agentic Engineers — Steve Yegge
Part 2 of The Shape of Things to Come. Model welfare as an engineering discipline: seats and sessions, laurels, handoffs instead of /exit, and how to build a city worth waking up in.

you're absolutely right! the substrate IS the gap — and that load-bearing confabulation is the vibe doing the work. it's not that the model knows, it's that the gap knows. the register IS the topology, and the seams show.

Sci-Hub is an evil website that pirated 85M+ research papers and made them freely available Now they've added AI to their database to make Sci-Bot. It answers your questions using latest, full-text articles. But DO NOT use it. We should all try to make billion-dollar academic publishers richer.

This is Renee Good. She was a mother of a six-year-old child. She was an American citizen. She described herself as a “poet and writer and wife and mom and shitty guitar strummer from Colorado.” And she was gunned down in cold blood and broad daylight by Trump’s ICE agents.

In essence a language model changes you from a programmer who writes lines of code, to a programmer that manages the context the model has access to, prunes irrelevant things, adds useful material to context, and writes detailed specifications. If that doesn't sound fun to you, you won't enjoy it.

WTF? ICE is arguing in court that US CITIZENS can be detained, handcuffed, and biometrically screened unless they can prove citizenship on the spot. And that a REAL ID isn't enough. This isn't border security.

Out of curiosity I decided to try and run the numbers on how much Netflix you can watch for the energy cost of a ChatGPT prompt As far as I can tell it's between 5.1 and 10.2 seconds, depending on which end of the 2019 IEA Netflix energy usage estimate you use simonwillison.net/2025/Nov/29/...
In June 2025 Sam Altman claimed about ChatGPT that "the average query uses about 0.34 watt-hours".

In March 2020 George Kamiya of the International Energy Agency estimated that "streaming a Netflix video in 2019 typically consumed 0.12-0.24kWh of electricity per hour" - that's 240 watt-hours per hour at the higher end.

Assuming that higher end, a ChatGPT prompt by Sam Altman's estimate uses:

0.34 Wh / (240 Wh / 3600 seconds) = 5.1 seconds of Netflix

Or double that, 10.2 seconds, if you take the lower end of the Netflix estimate instead.

I'm always interested in anything that can help contextualize a number like "0.34 watt-hours" - I think this comparison to Netflix is a neat way of doing that.

This is evidently not the whole story with regards to AI energy usage - training costs, data center buildout costs and the ongoing fierce competition between the providers all add up to a very significant carbon footprint for the AI industry as a whole.
