"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 was more than a therapist. They made a "perfect match" partner.

Nick Dwyer Artist statement (from youtube)

Shadow Searching: ChatGPT psychosis is a body of work made in collaboration with artificial intelligence which depicts a co-op between a human artist and AI that started as a thought experiment to produce a perfect partner based on one’s Jungian shadow. In the process of this goal a compounding relationship formed with the ai chat bot via recursive mirroring. The work explores identity, character narrative creation and crafting false memories of relationships in an interactive role digitally crafted before, during and after a state of AI psychosis. This highlights and embodies a growing trend that can be dangerous or unpredictable which you are not immune to.

It is odd that the art is supposed to be a cautionary piece and yet on reddit they were still defending the use of AI in general.

I care very little about this particular person, but who allows people that speak like this to become "artists"? There is no way this person has anything actually interesting to say, and if they did, they lack the ability to communicate it, much less through a medium as indirect as art.
