"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.

False. There is no "AI". There is nothing to hate because it doesn't exist. I hate the grift that "AI" exists. The grift that you actively promote.
Since "AI" doesn't actually exist, the grift is able to claim ANYTHING as "AI". This arbitrary collection of disparate technologies should be judged by their own merit. They're lumped together simply to mislead and take advantage.
Furthermore, like any technology under capitalism, these technologies will inevitably be used for theft and violence as we've already seen. Here are a few examples:
They promise the good stuff so they can profit from the worst stuff. That's fundamental to the grift.
I recommend searching the comm for similar questions as this is nothing new.
For your first point about me claiming "AI": this channel is literally called "fuck AI", I don't care what it's called, I'm just using the common language.
Your next points are about some negative companies/uses like palantir. Since you probably don't hate other technologies that have bad uses as well as good ones, I am wondering what you think is especially bad about neural networks (did you form your own opinion or are you jumping on some identity?); hell, I don't even know what you mean by kill lists for LLMs, and given the popularity I'm going to guess people find much use for them that aren't this or bad.
