"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.

How?
By design, because they want people to interact as much with their AI as possible, they made AI's agreeable which, y'know, is stupid but that's the time we live on now. Products no longer exist for our benefit, we exist for the benefit of the product
This would not have happened if there were sane rules and regulations but since trump scrapped any and all regulations, and made sure that states can't regulate it themselves either, we now effectively have a bunch of billionaires controlling misinformation machines, and we are okay with that, apparently?
Why is nobody stopping this bullshit?
Have you seen all the bullshit happening lately. The 1% of people who normally take action are overwhelmed with the tsunami of Trumps Fascist bullshit. The pool of heros need to grow, alot, if any of this is going to be fixed.
After making efforts to get friends and family to degoogle even small aspects of theor loves, like switching search engines, and being met with apathy and disinterest in digital hygiene I can tell you that no one is stepping up to be in the pool of heroes. Fuckers can't even do the bare minimum to protect themselves, sure as shit aren't stepping up to help others.
