"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.

Whatever AI is like today, it's been demonstrated programmers wildly overestimate how much time AI saves them; meanwhile, most everyone else has a vested interest in exagerrating the efficiency of AI and there is very little media presence pushing back against or investigating AI claims.

“The common wisdom” that AI saves a lot of time could just be to result of ignorance and delusion. I'm happy to wait for objective research before making assumptions one way or the other.

And however efficient AI actually is, nobody wants to pay the true cost of it yet.
