"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.

Plants absolutely "feel" things, they can sense gravity and the sun, some plants respond directly to touch (Venus flytrap, shameplant), there's tons of research on their ability to "hear" (check out buzz pollination and beach evening primrose, super interesting). They have vibrational and chemical communication abilities we're only just beginning to understand. If you mean they don't feel human emotions, well yeah, they're not human. But to say they don't feel is simply inaccurate.
