A place for all those who loathe machine-learning to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

And if I use "I feel" instead of a more concrete assertion, it's clear from context that I don't have any data to back that up off hand and am implicitly making a wider assertion that the people they hyped crypto are the same or akin to the people who are hyping AI.
Feel free to disprove me.
Not on me to disprove your, cough.... argument...cough.
Learn how standards of evidence work. "I feel" you got some reading to do.
Wasn't an argument. It was an anecdote. I feel there is insubstantial difference in character and behavior between crypto bros and ai hype people. Given that we are discussing large populations, overlap will occur. It has been my experience that they are generally the same people.
Thus "I feel" instead of some kind of demographic analysis. If you are offended by this, maybe don't associate with willfully uninformed grifters and their victims.
Well as long as you feel something it just be true. Especially when it involves humans. It's a lot easier to make up universal laws of ideas.
Yup. I'm ok with having a negative, poorly backed opinion of grifters who's lies fall in to my area of professional expertise. And if one of those grifters get butthurt about it, all the better. If they didn't want to be offended by people not liking their bullshit, they shouldn't be active detriments to society at large.
We don't do the right thing for other people we do it for ourselves
Sure. And the right thing is not tolerating grifters.
Yes grifters who you have blind faith exist
You imply I am a grifter? Quite the stretch. I'm curious how you got there. A vague reference to my profession brands me as such?
