"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 didn't decide where to plant the trees. I didn't decide what type of trees to plant. The algorithm generated what it thought a forest would look like...
Isn't that generative? It's not a llm, it's not making a tree but combining multiple trees to make a forest.
If it's putting conifers in a desert then sure it's generative AI, if it's following a predefined set of rules written by a human that govern tree placement and density, then it's procedural.
Minecraft is a good example, the rules that govern world generation are handwritten, they're not AI.
This again restates my point. We need a definition of generative Ai... Everyone thinks they know what it means but most don't agree.
