"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.

That very short examples aren't that burdensome, the real resource load hits on generating videos or anything where it might go off for several minutes, or make paragraphs.

The problem with refraining from using it and saying "well obviously it sucks" is that folks don't believe. They say "yeah, well, that night have been how ChatGPT 8.1 was., but it probably works fine with ChatGPT 8.2". The narrative is eternally "we were broken but fixed it all in our new version", and without ongoing examples, they get to own the narrative and critics are just "luddites".

Hell someone was saying how awesome Gemini was at codegen, so I showed it totally screwing up to the folks. Someone said "well, honestly, Gemini sucks for code, but Opus 4.6 is incredible.". So a few days later I bother to do a similar example with opus 4.6. some guy in the room said "well, actually Gemini is better than opus for coding". These people are absurd....
