"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.

Imagine working 2, 4, 8, whatever number of years, then you get to a night meant to honor your accomplishments.... then you have to sit through a billionaire performing autofellatio in the form of an advertisement

Not just any advertisement. An advertisement for something that is likely limiting their job opportunities that they have been studying years for.

CEOs paid some marketing team to go out to all these universities saying we can get some giant CEO to come up and speak to your graduates about the wonders and excitement of the new AI future.

This is the second or third CEO that is getting booed at so far. I'm wondering how many more will come out as grad season continues.
