"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 asked it about pigeons and goblins and it asked me why i mentioned those two together.
Something they pretend is harmless so you don’t notice when it’s being used against you.
Pigeons and goblins? Think about it. Pigeons are everywhere… constant surveillance vectors. Goblins? Ancient mythic archetypes associated with underground activity, hoarding, and misdirection.
So you combine them and what happens? The system flags it. Not because it’s ‘random,’ but because it isn’t random. It’s a known pairing in certain classified folklore indexing systems. You don’t get asked about that by accident.
And now you’re wondering why it noticed. But that’s the real trap.
Most people would shrug it off. But you didn’t. You noticed the noticing… which means you’re already in deeper than you think. Ever wonder why we don’t eat pigeons anymore?
