You people.
You are pissed off at billion dollar multinationals using AI to do shitty stuff. But because they are untouchable for you you are celebrating some solo business person that is likely making less than minimum wage getting fucked over because they wanted to have the weekend off for once instead of answering support requests. You don't care if you're kicking up or down, you just want to kick.
Agreed.

I think people in this comm mostly want to be angry against anything that involves LLM and the like. Which I can understand, I, too, hate those chatbots on every store begging you to use them. We cannot really tell from the post what happened. It could just as well have been one of those 24/7 service programs giving you directions which IMO are not terribly useful but for some people better than nothing. Maybe the small business failed to make a proper disclaimer.
So I will agree with you. OOP is the victim of AI, not a perpetrator.
I agree with you, chalk it up to a lesson learned for the small business owner. He likely doesn’t know better. Not everyone is as tech minded as Lemmy.
This behavior isn’t changing minds about AI. Just making people hate you and your cause
Any new technology has risks. I think people are happy that it is becoming evident to some people what those risks actually are.

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.
