"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

I saw something about the cops being called on them or another vendor selling ai art, which is as hilarious as it is maybe a bit overkill.
From what I've read, it was because they refused to leave.
Yeah that makes sense.
Apparently, it was a regular artist who got the booth (you have to send images to the organizers of what you're going to sell), but her boyfriend did some AI art and swapped it in on the second day.
I haven't seen any mention of that, the person knew they were selling ai slop and were arrogant about it.
With the knowledge of the girlfriend? That's scummy. Without? Pretty fucked up.
Surely she would have to be aware of it? It can't possibly be good to have no recollection or recognition of what it is you're selling.
