"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.

Well that just made me realise something. In my department we have folks with a masters and folks with a PhD.
All the pro-AI people ("what about using AI to reduce marking load", "do you have any AI use in your course", etc) lack PhDs.
It's a strange overlap, and now I'm wondering why.
People think AI is great for subjects they are not experts in. Experts will say AI is trash for their area of expertise.
AI is really good at sounding smart to the unknowledgeable.
