"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.

Something something forcing a shiny, new technology into places it doesn't belong so that big corporations could profit, disrupting whole communities, and causing massive environmental and health problems. Can't quite put my finger on what the analogy might be, though...
There's also a fundamental infrastructure problem in that it's more impressive to say "I've just signed off on this impressive new project on which we are breaking ground" than to say "We are continuing or maintaining the project that the last guy built." New is sexy. Old and functional is boring.
