"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 mean, the 3 biggest AI companies:
So porn, compliments, and lock in. And you think it won't last? Please.
To be fair, these are significant pillars of the Internet.
Compliments? No, the pillars of the internet are porn, criticism, and lock in
To be fair to my own argument, I didn't say they were the only pillars of the Internet.
It's hard to see how this tech becomes ubiquitous beyond as a Google replacement (which is dangerous enough as it is). ML has plenty of worthy and profitable applications but the whole LLM thing being forced into our daily lives... Not happening. Hard to justify paying more than $10 a month for LLM assistant and w ppl already skeptical of enshitification at a visceral level, I don't think ppl will tolerate any ads or capitalist Jedi mind tricks
