TIL my old AI model hit 10,000 training hours.

That's more than a year straight. Anyone else have a number that made them pause?

Imagine dedicating that much time to a digital brain. My phone's screen time report makes me feel bad enough.

That chess engine running for 2,300 hours is a record of useful work, not wasted time. It's like a digital craftsman quietly solving problems while you slept. My old laptop spent months folding proteins for medical research. That background processing actually did some good, unlike most of my own screen time spent just scrolling.

I saw my old chess engine had run for 2,300 hours once. It was just quietly grinding away on my old PC in the background. That number really put all that processing into perspective for me, like seeing the total miles on a car.
