"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 have a (relatively simple - by design) calendar/scheduling app. It just keeps schedule planning slots for people, they can check their own schedules, my wife can arrange schedules to get coverage, it tracks "vacations" when people aren't available, etc.

Last night, we decided we needed to track monthly budgets as well as schedles. Literally 4 prompts to Fable 5.2 and I have the monthly budget tracking feature, showing N (N=4 today) categories of budget tracked, against M (M=8) employees each earning different pay rates (3 different rates today) and showing how the budget spends down across the month as each week goes by in all the categories. It has a web interface, can be managed on a phone, it has .pdf outputs with nicely formatted tables. 4 prompts in one night starting after dinner, and I barely paid attention to it as it ran, tested out working after 2 prompts, added the .pdf outputs and reformatted one view with the last 2 prompts.
