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.

MODERATORS
Funny that this isnt even "AI". This is image and pattern recognition software that's been used in medicine for years and years. The AI part is that it's scraping all your medical data together into a single RAG so they can use it to fuck you over as efficiently as possible in the name of making more money.
Pattern recognition was “AI” until LLM took over almost all meaning of the phrase. One of the reasons corporations were supposed to store everything (storage is cheap) was to feed pattern recognition models.
That's the problem with using pseudo-science and bullshit terminology to get cash. They constantly need to increase their bullshit to get more funding.
In general people don't really hate AI itself but the absolute shitcocks in charge of it and their methods of using it.
TBH that's not "AI" either. In reality there's no such thing as "AI" at all. 100% grift.
It's still machine learning
No, it's not "machine learning" either. That's just another meaningless grifter term.
machine learning actually seems pretty well defined, standard across industry and academia, and we don't have any better words to describe the category
