"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 really should, however, if you're making software for people to use, point out the consequences, especially if the consequences aren't immediately obvious to the requested action. There's a sizable divide between "don't share my data" and "OK, we'll delete everything".
Don't get me wrong. ChatGPT is a festering pile of shit even without this. This "professor" should be stripped of his teaching credentials and be thrown into an LLMbecile detox centre, only allowed to exit when he learns to think for himself. These are both true.
But it is also true that if there are drastic implications to an action that isn't an obvious outcome from the requested function it should warn you.
