"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.

"The AI hype cycle would have you believe the technology is inevitable. But AI backlash is growing, as people worry it will steal their jobs, jack up electricity rates and further enrich the wealthy, all while hurting the environment."
Let's not forget about the deepfakes of women and children as well as the cognitive decline of frequent ai users.
Personally I am mostly worried about the fact it's murdering the very soul of the world.
If it was somehow doing the opposite, losing jobs and jacked up electrical bills would be unfortunate but acceptable side-effects.
The other two, though, are instrumental in the murder.
Let us also not forget just how utterly and thoroughly punchable the faces of all the top AI firm techbrodudes are. Altman. Musk. Zuckerberg. Huang. They are all just absolute bearers of Backpfeifengesichte who, even if their product wasn't a straight up Ponzi scheme close to the point of collapse, would be making people take a second look askance at the offerings.
You missed one!
he looks like he smells
Damn, you can call people out for their actions but I look like him 😭 I smell fine.
Proof?
I've probably missed a lot more than one. (I don't even know who that one is.)
This one looks more like an eight year old who put on Dad's suit and then accidentally got mistaken for an adult and is now afraid in a room of adults.
