was out to dinner recently
waiter approached our table
"let me fill those waters for you, do we have any allerg-"
before he could start pouring, i stopped him in his tracks
"sir, is something wrong?"
"yes, i don't want a single drop of water wasted on this dinner."
he seemed confused, so i explained
"a data center can use that entire jug of water to power 3 minutes of agentic workflows. that's a much higher ROI than keeping me hydrated."
eventually, i managed to convince every table at the restaurant to do the same. they all clapped as i loaded the spare water onto a truck heading for the closest data center
i haven't had anything to drink in weeks, and i'm starting to hallucinate, but if hallucinating is good enough for the LLMs, it's good enough for me
