"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.

We don't usually take into account what employees do to nature on their spare time.
In a way, we would have to equate all the money spent on employees and what it is used for.
Getting rid of an employee would surely be a net gain for the environment, right? If an LLM could offset 50 employees, perhaps that would be neutral in that sense.
This doesn't make a lot of sense, esoecially morally. We can't really blame the company for what employees do out of work, can we?
