"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.

What is this whole "human beings are special and have a soul?". You happen to experience things you "feel", that's it. Everything else is just like a specialized computer, shapped by nature to act in a certain way.
If you think you can hand-wave consciousness, self-awareness, sentience, and qualia away in a tossed-off social media post, good luck with that. ๐คฃ
I don't possess conscious experience and even I think this whole thread is crap.
