"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.

The problem is that there is no "we" here. There is us, the people, and them, the legislators.
At the federal level, I'd be surprised if there were ANY federal legislator that isn't invested in GenAI in a significant way and using their classified briefings in order to make insider trades.
Our only power is local, and locally at least, the people are acting. (Specifically on the problem of data centers and Flock cameras.)
