Fuck AI

"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.

Don't use google. They aren't your friend.

How far they have fallen in the past 20+ years.

Yeah... And soon they will block third party apps.

I want a Linux phone alternative yesterday.

Graphene OS is superior IMO. Android is open source already and Graphene fully removes Google.

I don't see any advantage of trying to build everything from scratch again, which would mean giving up the enormous app ecosystem and existing work.

It's way easier and more practical to just hard fork Android.

Don't use any company's storage as your only copy, or even as your main means of access. Self host as much as possible.

Self-hosting can be a "Let them eat cake" kind of first-world answer for Japanese users. Most of them get tiny apartments to begin with. A desktop computer and enough space for it is a pretty heavy luxury to begin with. A dedicated always-on machine is another step above that.

Much of their lives revolves around mobile or smaller devices (part of why the Steam Deck was popular there and introduced many of them to Steam)

One is none, and two is not enough. The more places your data is, the harder it is to lose.
