Fuck AI

"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.

But the money is flowing in a circle, will it ever truly run out?

[–] ParlimentOfDoom@piefed.zip 17 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

That circle of money has leaks going to power, construction, electricity, water, etc. No one is making any profit off of this shit yet, and increasing users is only increasing their expenditure. Banks well only give so much leeway. They just posted a $20 bn loss, and postponed their IPO. They're circling the drain. Cheaper competitors spring up daily

As ever, someone is profiting - be it power companies, Cemex, etc.

Selling shovels to gold miners, etc

Is AI profitable?

The only people walking away right now with money are the hardware manufacturers.

TSMC is spending it, isn't it?
