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.

First of all, why is this even necessary for education? That doesn't help anything, only enshittifies what's already overpriced. And they'll probably pass the cost on to the tuition.

Second of all, there are plenty of fucking free LLMs that people can use if they really need it for some odd use case where it doesn't actually make learning outcomes worse.

Third of all, they could have used that money to offer scholarships, but no cause that would tarnish their "business model." Fuck this country, and fuck the commodified education system.

Fucking stupid also because the university should be paid for ChatGPT to give them access to the queries and input the highly academic CU staff and interns are inputting, or at least give it to them freely.

ChatGPT is getting more value out of the arrangement than the university, yet the university is the one paying them $2mil.

and whatever input might become useless if its being mish mashed together when OPAI, which can hallucinate things, so they have "reasnoable doubt to accuse of violating Uni policy for anything"

if they are using it to screen for "cheating" on Papers or writing prompts, they are in a world of hurt once the lawsuits hit.

These fuckers must have more blackmail than Epstein with how easily they dupe CEOs and school presidents.

Why it matters: CU is betting that embracing AI — rather than restricting it — will level the playing field for students, prepare them for the modern workforce and address data security concerns head-on.

That's fucking ridiculous. Wrong on so many levels. What the fuck.
