"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.

Motherfucker blew 20$ in a night, and extrapolated it to several hundred bucks a month. All for what is essentially a labeled alarm. You know, something your phone can already do, no AI necessary, for FREE.
This technology is a bad joke. It needs to die.
You can even ask google AI to set that alarm (although the non LLM based assistant it replaced would probably do it more reliably). This is a case of idiotic "AI in a while loop can do everything" thinking without checking if it makes sense.
Also extrapolated a maximum of 3-4 sentences into several paragraphs somehow
