"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.

NGL, that day scares TF outta me. You know the new AI is gonna be under the control of someone who really shouldn't have it.
Like now?
This is an alpha version level dry run compared to what they will be able to do with a genuine AGI should they get there.
Oh, sorry I was imprecise with my language. I was trying to say I don't trust these owners as far as I can shit them. I'm a champion shitter, but I ain't never shat nothing that big.
Hopeful Counterpoint: The big money tech bros are so high on their own supply that they will waste massive amounts of potential progress on real AI using their LLM toys.
So there's a decent chance that real researchers get there first and open source their solutions.
Of course, in the end, it'll still be rich tech bros who connect whatever they're calling AI today to a set of wheels and a gattling gun, and send it into work life balance negotiations. (Because assholes are still going to asshole.)
It always will
