"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.

Trying to save white collar jobs with obstructive law won’t have the effect they think it will.
I'm guessing this isnt about saving jobs, it's about reducing the harm caused by people taking advice from a misinformation machine for complex issues like the law and their physical and mental health.
As long as they don't solve all the other problems where more people die we can be sure that it is about protecting jobs.
The working class saw this coming decades ago, only to be mocked and told to retrain by the same credentialized individuals who're now crying about AI. Yesterday's push to offshore jobs and today's rush toward digital automation are simply different phases of the exact same economic displacement. It cannot be stopped with legislation in a globalized world where capital flows freely.
