Fuck AI

BTW, don't get me wrong. These things have their uses. It's just that their misrepresentation as "AI" is causing people to put them in a category they do not fit in. True AI or AGI will not be achieved through these methods. But these GANs have uses and if marketed the way they should be, they could lead to some terrific innovation.

But the way they're being marketed right now is just a lot of hype whose only goal is to squeeze money out of investors and those gullible enough to believe that this is more than it is. And in the meantime they're going to do a fuck ton of damage by stealing the artwork of people who actually have artistic talent thereby taking money out of those creative people's pockets and the LLMs that are being wantonly plugged into search engines are outputting misinformation all over the place while enforcing a lazy attitude toward research and information gathering.
