"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.

The actual group leading the protest. Because I was just hit with a paywall on mobile.
Chair is a former tea party leader. So, definitely conservatives. The people leading these groups can still be pieces of shit. But, the important thing to understand is that there is a real demand for stopping AI within the working class. So much so that even conservative politicians are realizing they have to do something to keep their jobs.
