"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.

what about all that groundwater the mormons are pumping out of heber? like 180,000 gallons a day for their clubhouse? they use ALL of that?
Heber is pretty far from this particular fire.
oh i thought we were also highlighting state mismanagement of water, withdrawn
I mean that's a given. It infuriated me last year when we had one good winter and the state threw out all it's plans and demands for water management. Then this winter hit and I said to many people that the fires were going to be very bad. We have reservoirs that are sitting under 20% full for years now. But it sounds like you may live here as well and are aware of this.
used to live there, keep up with news to see how old friends are doing. one of the places they hold one of the big festivals out by heber is my family's old farm. it's a godsdamned golf course now.
