# Dev Digest 124 - None like it hot

**By:** [Chris Heilmann](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/@chris-heilmann)

**Published:** July 15, 2024

Today, we learn about the environmental impact of AI, how SafeTix isn't safe and why CSS can get you into jail whilst ECMAScript moves on.

## News and Articles

It is official, the [AI summer](https://www.ben-evans.com/benedictevans/2024/7/9/the-ai-summer?utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&utm_content=315364525&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-9DR0bnSQ_qlpMs6TVpSXO-Vy8WbnxzUUEiXN9ruyzx1VPwY828TX3nJN2yud__5dHB-81QZbAHAUkfecIO1bNG0JhSbK6zBHdPUK7zOBzkzxFjEJI) is here. However, generative AI is also a [climate disaster](https://disconnect.blog/generative-ai-is-a-climate-disaster/?utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&utm_content=315364525&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-9DR0bnSQ_qlpMs6TVpSXO-Vy8WbnxzUUEiXN9ruyzx1VPwY828TX3nJN2yud__5dHB-81QZbAHAUkfecIO1bNG0JhSbK6zBHdPUK7zOBzkzxFjEJI) and [**Google** and **Microsoft** are getting dirtier](https://pivot-to-ai.com/2024/07/04/google-and-microsoft-are-getting-dirtier-they-cant-help-it-its-ai/?utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&utm_content=315364525&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-9DR0bnSQ_qlpMs6TVpSXO-Vy8WbnxzUUEiXN9ruyzx1VPwY828TX3nJN2yud__5dHB-81QZbAHAUkfecIO1bNG0JhSbK6zBHdPUK7zOBzkzxFjEJI), missing their goals towards carbon neutrality. You may not know it, but creating an image with generative AI [uses as much energy as charging your phone](https://www.technologyreview.com/2023/12/01/1084189/making-an-image-with-generative-ai-uses-as-much-energy-as-charging-your-phone/?utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&utm_content=315364525&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-9DR0bnSQ_qlpMs6TVpSXO-Vy8WbnxzUUEiXN9ruyzx1VPwY828TX3nJN2yud__5dHB-81QZbAHAUkfecIO1bNG0JhSbK6zBHdPUK7zOBzkzxFjEJI). Things aren't peachy when it comes to financing the AI boom. A **Sequoia** report claims that [hardware costs alone are $600b / year](https://www.tomshardware.com/tech-industry/artificial-intelligence/ai-industry-needs-to-earn-dollar600-billion-per-year-to-pay-for-massive-hardware-spend-fears-of-an-ai-bubble-intensify-in-wake-of-sequoia-report?utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&utm_content=315364525&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-9DR0bnSQ_qlpMs6TVpSXO-Vy8WbnxzUUEiXN9ruyzx1VPwY828TX3nJN2yud__5dHB-81QZbAHAUkfecIO1bNG0JhSbK6zBHdPUK7zOBzkzxFjEJI). There is research to improve matters though. [**Google** reports a 13x faster and 10x more power efficient AI training tech](https://www.tomshardware.com/tech-industry/artificial-intelligence/google-claims-new-ai-training-tech-is-13-times-faster-and-10-times-more-power-efficient-deepminds-new-jest-optimizes-training-data-for-massive-gains?utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&utm_content=315364525&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-9DR0bnSQ_qlpMs6TVpSXO-Vy8WbnxzUUEiXN9ruyzx1VPwY828TX3nJN2yud__5dHB-81QZbAHAUkfecIO1bNG0JhSbK6zBHdPUK7zOBzkzxFjEJI) and rolls out an LLM running on-device, in the browser with a dedicated [Prompt API](https://github.com/explainers-by-googlers/prompt-api?utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&utm_content=315364525&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-9DR0bnSQ_qlpMs6TVpSXO-Vy8WbnxzUUEiXN9ruyzx1VPwY828TX3nJN2yud__5dHB-81QZbAHAUkfecIO1bNG0JhSbK6zBHdPUK7zOBzkzxFjEJI). This, however, poses some issues: It is an [interoperability worry](https://patrickbrosset.com/articles/2024-07-04-a-language-model-in-your-browser-accessible-as-a-web-api/?utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&utm_content=315364525&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-9DR0bnSQ_qlpMs6TVpSXO-Vy8WbnxzUUEiXN9ruyzx1VPwY828TX3nJN2yud__5dHB-81QZbAHAUkfecIO1bNG0JhSbK6zBHdPUK7zOBzkzxFjEJI) - different LLMs have different prompt styles. Chrome already [has deep insight of your computer](https://www.threads.net/@engineerscodex/post/C9NtC2AS3rP?utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&utm_content=315364525&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-9DR0bnSQ_qlpMs6TVpSXO-Vy8WbnxzUUEiXN9ruyzx1VPwY828TX3nJN2yud__5dHB-81QZbAHAUkfecIO1bNG0JhSbK6zBHdPUK7zOBzkzxFjEJI) and a prompt-injection prone LLM might become a security issue.

Talking of security matters, **Ticketmaster's SafeTix** technology has been [reverse engineered](https://conduition.io/coding/ticketmaster/?utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&utm_content=315364525&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-9DR0bnSQ_qlpMs6TVpSXO-Vy8WbnxzUUEiXN9ruyzx1VPwY828TX3nJN2yud__5dHB-81QZbAHAUkfecIO1bNG0JhSbK6zBHdPUK7zOBzkzxFjEJI) which is is a [massive concern](https://www.404media.co/scalpers-are-working-with-hackers-to-liberate-non-transferable-tickets-from-ticketmasters-ecosystem/?utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&utm_content=315364525&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-9DR0bnSQ_qlpMs6TVpSXO-Vy8WbnxzUUEiXN9ruyzx1VPwY828TX3nJN2yud__5dHB-81QZbAHAUkfecIO1bNG0JhSbK6zBHdPUK7zOBzkzxFjEJI) with quite some reach. The [RockYou2024 leak](https://www.newsbytesapp.com/news/science/massive-data-breach-exposes-billions-of-unique-passwords/story?utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&utm_content=315364525&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-9DR0bnSQ_qlpMs6TVpSXO-Vy8WbnxzUUEiXN9ruyzx1VPwY828TX3nJN2yud__5dHB-81QZbAHAUkfecIO1bNG0JhSbK6zBHdPUK7zOBzkzxFjEJI) is a text file with 10 billion passwords, which now can be used in attacks, and [Rust has a supply chain security problem](https://kerkour.com/rust-supply-chain-security-standard-library?utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&utm_content=315364525&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-9DR0bnSQ_qlpMs6TVpSXO-Vy8WbnxzUUEiXN9ruyzx1VPwY828TX3nJN2yud__5dHB-81QZbAHAUkfecIO1bNG0JhSbK6zBHdPUK7zOBzkzxFjEJI).

Lastly, [60% of Google searches end with zero clicks](https://sparktoro.com/blog/2024-zero-click-search-study-for-every-1000-us-google-searches-only-374-clicks-go-to-the-open-web-in-the-eu-its-360/?utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&utm_content=315364525&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-9DR0bnSQ_qlpMs6TVpSXO-Vy8WbnxzUUEiXN9ruyzx1VPwY828TX3nJN2yud__5dHB-81QZbAHAUkfecIO1bNG0JhSbK6zBHdPUK7zOBzkzxFjEJI). I am not surprised, given that it returns ads or "things I might like" instead of web sites these days.
