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.

A roll of the dice could replace CEOs.
They like the idea of AI and how it can magically fix all problems. Managers hear this and they in turn suggest AI as a solution for all problems without any idea how to implement it and if it even makes any sense.
It can fix all of the CEOs problems, and most of the managers problems. It can summarize text, and generate believable bullshit.
That's why they don't understand why it won't solve the workers' problems.
They have no idea what you do.
Well, by “fix all problems” what they really mean is “keep all the money for ourselves and not pay employees” since the problem they’re trying to solve is just wages.
Its almost like the C-suite dont know shit other than being paid, shortsightedness, cutting costs, and unwanted initiatives to boost their resume.
I'm pretty sure they're being told to do so by the company's investors. The same investors that invested money on AI.
"Why isn't this working? The AI said it was a good idea and that I am a genius for thinking of it!"
I tried to search a list of companies that have avoided, eschewed, or decided against using AI. Basically I hoped to find any corporate resistance. All the search engines did was feed me drivel about how companies that don't go 100% in on AI will be left behind. I was hoping to fill out my portfolio with some non-AI companies that have a chance at surviving the bubble. I managed to tweak my search and get a few useful results about companies who rolled back some AI changes that crashed hard.
The fucking AI groupie brigade is so annoyingly omnipresent. They won't be happy until we're all choking to death on the fumes of our own AI-powered farts.
Does Mojeek count?
Doesn't matter. Their attitude is that they'll make so much money when they finally "get it right," they're gonna keep trying the "throw it at the wall, and see what sticks" approach until they finally hit the jackpot or go bust..
I'm betting on go bust.
Whats that? Oh, I can't hear you over the sound of every single big company trying to use AI to replace human jobs, and it ending in disaster!
Nah, having to keep making enough of a short-term profit to keep their shareholders on board will provide something of a limiting factor - but they will still keep at it on a smaller scale until they get there.
