"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.

It's all part of the grift of AI and autonomous robots. Cute synchronized dancing videos but I have yet to see one thread a bolt into a nut.
That's a bit of a weird way to word it. Most assembly lines (even at a cheese factory I used to do support for) do things like packaging products, installing nuts, welding panels in auto factories, etc- those robots are real and incredibly good at their SPECIFIC roles, but those aren't the kinds of "robots" we're talking about here. They are the opposite of autonomous- as if you stand in the way of one of these they'll just freak out and emergency stop, or fail to and kill you. :)
The grift is that autonomous biped robots will replace skilled, or even unskilled labor in factories. Show me one tool task not confined in XYZ space carried out by these toys.
No, we get dancing and jumping around.
