Well yeah, AI has been ready to replace people "any day now" for over a year and all its done is require more energy to produce incrementally less sloppy slop, and even that is a bit generous.

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.

True. AI is also laying the groundwork for data breaches, and unplanned downtime.
It was a smokescreen. They literally used AI as an excuse for layoffs in order to maximize profits and minimize overhead in the short term.
I'm all for studying this to have science back up what we already knew, but at the same time I absolutely am having a "duh" moment here.
Wait until they have to pay through their noses to hire the specialists to fix the shit AI created.
