"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.

One trillion. That's the amount of money that has been invested in AI.

Nah. 80% of it went to billionaires pockets, the rest of it buying power plants, funding ChatGPT wrappers, maybe less than 1% goes to researchers.

Also, the article is a year old. It's VC investments mostly. So billionaires are fleecing billionaires.
