"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 hate 99.44% of electronic music. But yes, it takes genuine skill and talent to make it. I just happen to not like it at all.

What was the one electronic track that won you over?
