"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.

Yeah, it's how you get grant money.
Oh really, and tell us..how much of that grant money goes to the actual scientist who wrote the grant?
None? But that grant money is the only way they can actually do anything.
Sprinkling AI buzzwords into grant proposals is how the sausage is made.
