"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 take exception to the claim that AI-generated music is popular. I guarantee you those stats are misleading. Just like if you believe that all of the "views" on X are real, well, I have a bridge in Manhattan to sell you.
AI audiences pumping numbers for AI slop.
It's bots all the way down.
