"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.

Open Source already did this years ago, except it wasn't creepy nor privacy invasive.
My issue is with facial recognition, maybe I didn't do enough to clarify. Unless I'm misunderstanding, you have to put information into that but I don't have that information.
It's like a stranger walking up to you on the street and trying to interact with you. Not very comfortable. But then as they speak, you recognize their voice and their body language and you suddenly realize it's one of your good friends. The issue is that I would like to be able to realize that's my good friend when everyone else would normally be able to.
