"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.

Great, just what the world needed: bigtech buying (scarce, non-renewable) uranium and selling the resulting plutonium to the highest bidder.
crazy thought, what if this was the end-goal of the AI pump and dump? Tech firms now have a runway for initiating nuclear weapons programs under the guise of managing their electricity needs.
Yup, crazy thought, but we see worse in the news these days so I'm not ruling it out.
