"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.

Right before midterm elections pretty please. Like 3 weeks before would be perfect. A massive crash with the normal support network in disarray from their stupidity. Triggering a 10 year long depression with up to 25% unemployment.
You know what happened after the last long lasting serious depression? FDR's new deal - union rights, workers rights, social security, corporate regulations and all the other silly things that led to massive enlargement of the middle class at the expense of the extremely wealthy.
