"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.

It's a good thing then that "background noise" never happens irl, whenever an AI might actually be used... or else problems might ensue!! Surely police officers do not need, like, "accurate" information in order to do their jobs, say like... an address to go visit next, or a reason why, or what to expect upon arrival, and so on? /s

You misunderstand if you are thinking that people are ever criticizing "AI" itself - people instead are criticizing "the use of AI", in situations where it is not yet ready to be used, having not been fully vetted. i.e., it's arguably not even the fault of the AI engineers, so much as the companies foolishly selling it, plus also the customers foolishly buying it, hoping that it will enable them to be as lazy as they can possibly be, which it sorta does, until consequences catch up to their decisions.
