"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.

Here is what I find funny, there was years in the early 2000's where he was alive and healthy and he was not getting great roles or as much attention.
Now he is dead and they are trying to revive him. Like it feels so silly to try to bring back someone with AI to make it like he is alive and healthy again. Those days are gone. Executives are using AI to live in denial.
My recollection may be flawed, but I think he had a reputation for being difficult to work with, and that's why the roles dried up.
