Fuck AI

"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.

I’ve been working with so many students who turn to it as a first resort for everything. The second a problem stumps them, it’s AI. The first source for research is AI.

It’s not even about the tech, there’s just something about not wanting to learn that deeply upsets me. It’s not really something I can understand. There is no reason to avoid getting better at writing.

No, this is not a "it has always been like this" moment. It is so tiresome when AI apologists uses that tired phrase. The situation now is very different from before because it is much more widespread than it has ever been before, exactly because AI makes it easier for people to escape from learning.

So it is not only the same people, it is a much larger part of the population doing this.

It is though, this can be observed in most schools. The problem just become solo much more visible through the usage of ai and is pointing out the major issues of how schools work and how they demotivate students

No, this is not a “it has always been like this”
