"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.

Support artists, buy music on Bandcamp (especially on Bandcamp Fridays when they pay them more of the overhead fees), or from the artists directly.
Just remember when you buy from bandcamp to back up the drm-free copy you get. Then if Bandcamp goes under, or the artist pulls the track, you'll still have it.
Love Bandcamp, I just discovered Bandcamp works perfectly with Music Assistant (popular Home Assistant app).
Its the last online music service that isnt absolute shit. I give it 10 years. Otherwise, nas all the way.
