"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.

Yeah, I know the perversion of words is a regular thing (for various malicious or random reasons), but the the current use of "AI" and "data certes" really keeps fucking me mid communication (evey time I hear "AI" I think "oh, non-AI-AI").
The last time this happened as much (iirc) was the word "literally" (as in 'it literally keeps fucking me mid communication').
So yes, data centres (libraries) are important, including managing risks of such centres (eg de/centralisation, concentration, etc).
I would say intelligence is important too but ... I lack the evidence.
Literally has meant figuratively longer than literally only meant objectively.
Touche.
Alas, I did not touch you!
Funny how words grow and change with use ๐
No, that was an invitation, do touch.
