"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.

They lost control of the narrative. All their millions in PR and advertising and it cannot cover up the terrible idea that is unchecked corporate GenAI. This bubble can't pop fast enough.
They're like my dad. You can't just describe everything as "perfect/really good" even contrary to reality. That doesn't just magically gaslight everyone around you into believing what you say, all it does is make those words lose meaning when you say them and your opinion loses credibility.
Then when something is actually really good, no one takes your word for it because that's what you say when something is total shit. It's completely insincere, and it's so easy to see through.
