"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.

I suspect there are a lot of niche scientific fields that benefit and will continue to benefit from the enormous LLMs being built. Problem is, those will be used by a small number of scientists and technologists, applied to very specific problems. And for most scientific problems the existing open-source LLMs are good enough. But the AI companies want mass-market subscribable services so they can leech money off us forever.
