"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 agree with the first part, but I think the second part is unsubstantiated.

I don't think it is - but there are no studies to confirm that either afaik.

I agree with you. I don't think it's failure so much as this unwillingness to accept I can't do something. We have generations of people who want it and want it now, and AI scratches the itch in that regard. I say this as a millennial, I'm 37, and it's certainly true of my generation, and I find it to be true of all the generations after me.

I don't know if it's good or bad. I certainly know why I think it's bad, the whole delayed gratification, entitlement, etc., but I'm sure access to information, ability to express ideas, and whatnot, are good things too.

And I'll just indicate I have a personal anti-AI bias. Maybe I'm too lazy to use it, maybe I have some other rationale in my subconscious, but that's where I come from.
