"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.

"No one else Google things the same way as me."
I used to unironically be low-key proud of my googling skills. Before google got so crummy, at least.
And honestly you can be better at writing prompts and be proud of that too, but given that AI is built entirely on using other people’s work, you’re not allowed to be upset about people using it. Don’t post them publicly if you really care.
“You can’t add ‘site:reddit.com’, that’s MY googling trick!”
I press enter after each command I want to issue. I did it back in the 90s and now everybody does it.
Fond of google 2000-2005 (ish).
Back before enshitification, when could use extra criteria to reliably filter and refine the search, and could go dozens of pages deep into search results. Back before it got nerfed and censored.
Now have to wrestle a dozen different websearch engines.
Yeah who thought it was a good idea to remove the "-" to exclude things? I'm looking for a painters pallet not a fucking transport pallet you morons.
/Rant off 😁
There used to be a strategy to it. Simply googling several specific and relevant keywords would get you incredibly good results. Nowadays, you're honestly better off typing out a whole question and hoping the bullshit Ai answer has good sources you can click on.
I thing that's wrong
