Oh! Great. So, vaccines will soon be illegal and we’re designing custom viruses to infect the populace. Manufactured epidemic, localized to the US. Good to know my tax dollars are being used for good. 🙄

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.
