"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.

This comment is so insane, especially after reading the conversation that resulted from it.
You acknowledge that the workers work because they need the money, you acknowledge that the alternative is a worse or no job. You call it a societal issue.
And your comment is "so... don't do it?"... yeah, don't do checks notes societal issue, don't complain about being forced into checks notes again societal issue.
This comment is so insane. It's like you read my entire comment but didn't comprehend any of it.
Then what did I miss? Are you not telling individuals to not complain about a societal issue when they can just not do it and suffer more?
No one is complaining about a societal issues, they're complaining about AI companies.
Yes because they could create better working conditions of their workers. They could be the first step to fix societal issues. And I don't see where it is written that the workers are not aware and not complaining about the societal issue. Because they can do both at once.
As could a thousand other people.
Do you see their workers in this thread?
Other people could create it, yeah. The workers of ai companies are the ones complaining though. Other workers would have the same great reason to complain. But the workers of ai companies blame the ai companies who are directly responsible for their situation.
No? Why would I see workers in this thread? How would that change anything about the reality of their working conditions or the ability of ai companies to improve them?
You really think no one else is complaining?
You wouldn't. That's the point.
I don't know, you're the one that's discussing your personal visibility for some reason...
What? You commented on an article about workers of ai companies, you told them to just not do it. And now you are acting like i am choosing to talk about the ai workers? That is the topic at hand!
When did I talk about my personal visibility?
I really struggle to understand your point.
Because I used a common phrase to express that just because the workers at those companies are outraged over the work conditions, it doesn't make them unable to be aware and understand the societal issue; I literally talk about what I don't see and consequently your point makes somehow more sense?
I'm sorry you're struggling. You're making arguments based on nothing but what you have personally seen, which is really meaningless in a global discussion. And consequently your point somehow makes more sense?
My arguments is based on nothing but what i have personally seen? Lol. That is a funny thing to say. Everyone remotely honest, will be able to tell that nothing is further from the truth.
I agree, it is funny, why did you say that?
You don't have the monopoly on that, even if that were a true assessment.
...monopoly? What are you even talking about? Do you even know what that word means?
