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.

REI isn't who they hype themselves to be.
So now they probably want to use GenAI to create hype shots, fake reviews, review summaries, and "improve efficiencies" that are so far from their original mission you can't see it from there.
But REI is a LONG ways from being the co-op sort of place they used to pretend to be. Now they just resell cheaply manufactured trash.
