"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 know a guy in his late 80's who's still farming. He's told me a million times that the day he stops farming will be the day that he dies, and I believe him. He's got enough money to retire - he's just in it for the love of the game.
He’s outstanding in his field.
Ok take my upvote and get out
That joke is as old as agriculture, but thanks. See ya!
