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.

Oh sorry I think I misunderstood the sub title.

I think you may have understood it better than all of us

[–] tanisnikana@lemmy.world 24 points 3 months ago

No no, you did perfect.

I saw an obvious scam. I placed an order and got scammed.

Why would anyone buy a product when the product picture is AI generated? Wouldn't that make you think the product doesn't actually exist?

[–] pleaseletmein@lemmy.zip 14 points 3 months ago (2 children)

My mom fell for one because she didn’t realize the picture was AI. That’s what they’re banking on.

Yeah, I'm sure that's true.

I'm very careful about where I put my credit card number. Can't imagine doing this.

The scary part is that anyone could easily be fooled with a plausible picture, it doesn't have to be a novelty item.

Sometimes you really want to trust the seven fingered person selling ornaments of lions eating ass is real.

[–] AFKBRBChocolate@lemmy.ca 4 points 3 months ago

It would almost be heartwarming if the ornament actually showed up.

Looks like he's going to "arrive" soon.

[–] TachyonTele@piefed.social 5 points 3 months ago

It will arrive precisely when you need it to.

I was really struggling to figure out what this was SUPPOSED to be

[–] Ludicrous0251@piefed.zip 3 points 3 months ago

Obviously astroturfing. Big AI trying to get you hooked on bootleg pornaments.
