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.

Bit ironic that the image is generative AI slop

… or is it?

I am quite positive that it is AI gen.

  • RGB light (can be edit in)
  • RAM stick contact pins look too dense to be real
  • Thin CPU fan with big hub pointing down while cooler fin lay horizontal
  • Weirdly large distance between CPU and RAM socket

Aren't the ram slots also straight up placed wrong in the motherboard? I have never seen ram on a diagonal from the CPU before, or running parallel to the pcie slots, even on weird prebuilts.

Oh I think they actually are wrong. Didn't even notice that before.

The smooth focus effect on the heatsink made me think it was stock photography but tineye can't find it beyond February so it could easily be generated.

Oh, definitely. I was questioning whether or not the irony was actually deliberate, illustrating the end result of the fake money ouroboros

All kinds of weird going on with how the right hand is “holding” that module (while pinching another one behind it?)

Memory module is symmetrical.

No motherboard I’ve ever seen would have DIMM slots parallel to PCI slots, let alone that far from the CPU socket

Have a look at what would normally be the 24-Pin ATX connector - fewer pins, which is not unheard of in some proprietary cases, but the connector itself looks weird and garbled.

Ironic? Or GenAI?

[–] Romkslrqusz@lemmy.zip 2 points 14 hours ago

Ironic - it’s clearly GenAI

The question is whether or not it’d deliberately ironic, the hallucination machine can’t even properly hallucinate PC Hardware despite heaps of training data.
