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.

im gonna disagree with mx master. the wheel thingy was not useful to me and the overall quality fkr the price was not what i had hoped for-- controversial take, i know, but logitech aint what they used to be.
i ended up with the hyperx haste, the one with a bunch of 'speed holes' in it (just looked it up, looks like they updated the model number and removed the holes. a step backward imo). i originally got it with a view towards carrying it with my laptop, which worked very well. i found however thay i wasnt actually compromising anything, so that when i lost the 2.4ghz dongle (dont lose the dongle) i just ordered a new one (theyre a fair price especially compared to logi branding) and plugged the old one into my desktop as a wired mouse and im very happy with it as a daily driver in both roles. great battery life, no noticeable latency on the wireless, and the holes keep my hand from getting sweaty xD. also while theres rgb, its not obnoxious and fairly easy and relatively noninvasive to turn it off-- a lightweight (windows) program that doesnt harvest data. i have it shine a blue light at the minimum possible brightness just so i can tell if its on. lasts 3ish months on a charge, using it 3 or 4 days a week for several hours at a time. basically a whole semester.
overall a great product at a fair price and i recommend it.
