"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.

Santa is the mascot of that secular version of christmas.

It's Elf and Safety gone mad!

I don't get it either. Doesn't Santa work on Christmas Eve? As in evening? As in night time? How is beating him up the next morning helpful at all? Why the holy fuck did this moron not make his stupid fucking pictures set at night?
