"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.

Steve Wozniak is a textbook example of a tech guy who got driven out by business guys so they could ruin everything for fun and profit.

Also someone who isn't insecure about their ability. He KNOWS he can make something new on a whim. He knows it in his bones.

He KNOWS he can make something new on a whim.

He knows he was in the right place at the right time.

That's why he was successful. But I'm talking about his ability and his confidence in his skills.

Have you watched the show called Halt and Catch Fire?

This Steve would have probably put all of us in a better timeline. But no. The car salesman took over.

[–] ceenote@lemmy.world 36 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

By design. Shareholders want the car salesmen in charge.

[–] voidsignal@lemmy.world 13 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

There's no shareholder. Only older car salesmen.

Hard dis-dis-agree (which means I agree)

Woz was always the better of the Steves.

[–] neclimdul@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

Every time Woz says something I'm reminded of what a cool guy he is. Probably be good friends in the right circumstances
