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.

yeah that sounds like a totally mentally stable guy

[–] BooBees@fedinsfw.app 32 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

And you know if he’s arguing against regulation that they’ve got some seriously evil plans in the pipeline to roll out and profit from or extract power/control from. Also all you need to do is look at the favorability rates between the US and China on ai, US citizens really really distrust and don’t look forward do more ai, whereas China already has implemented tons of serious regulation and controls on ai and the polls are sky high for favorability and looking forward to more ai in china.

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Plans? I doubt he’s got any plans. Vague promises, buzzwords, and bribes from techbros? Oh yeah he’s got a boatload of that.

[–] BooBees@fedinsfw.app 8 points 3 weeks ago

You’re not paying attention if you think this guy doesn’t always have a plan to profit from the chaos and extortion opportunities once he’s overtly fucked up a system so bad it’s literally killing people.

americans elected this guy.

[–] crozilla@lemmy.world 30 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

But only ~30% of the population, and those people only after 70 years of education cuts, misinformation, and religious indoctrination…it took the GOP a long time, but they got what they wanted. It’s a real endorsement for perseverance. And amoral greed, I guess.

[–] potter2010@lemmy.ca 24 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

You need to add in those that didn't vote.

If you don't vote then you automatically support who is elected.

[–] shawn1122@sh.itjust.works 5 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

They knew he was a possibility and still didn't bother showing up to prevent his reelection after he had led an insurrection for being voted out the first time.

At the bare minimum anyone who didn't show up to vote is complicit.

If you're pro AI this is who represents you.

[–] Shindo66@lemmy.world 26 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

I know stuff has been said before, but when the president says basically "we have to do this and we will do it" and "if you dont like it we will brand you a treasonous traitor" for something you have very strong opinions about, its kind of scary.

[–] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 19 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

yeah there's a reason the USA is considered a hostile nation now

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

We were never not considered hostile, we just had a ton of offsetting soft power. There's just less of a reason to deal with us now that we cut soft power.

[–] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 6 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

nah, Canadians definitely didn't see the USA as actively hostile. now, quite a few do.

[–] CrabAndBroom@lemmy.ml 6 points 3 weeks ago

Person in Canada here! This is true, mainly because of the whole "constantly threatening to invade us, shit-talking the Prime Minister non-stop, starting an idiotic trade war and trying to rename our lakes" thing.

Well I was against AI before, but now that I've read the demented gibberings of this 80 year old shit-encrusted pedophile on the subject, I'm convinced!

[–] lemmy_outta_here@lemmy.world 24 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

All the strong and smart people I know are CONSTANTLY reminding everyone how STRONG AND SMART (High IQ!) they are.

They also commonly use the term "Treasonists".

The only bad things that hes referencing that anthropic did, is they refused to allow the military to use their Ai to be used in autonomous kill weapons, and be used as survalience against the people of the united States.

And anthropic still does both of those things lol. So if those are the bad guys, you can only immagine what the good ai "people" do. Which is assist in the genocide in Gaza, help surveil the people who don't like it, and generate pro us, pro ai propaganda for his friends media companies like Jeff bezos. If you don't like the fact trump made it illegal for the states to regulate ai in anyway (including generating ai csam), then you are a anti tech extremist, terrorist, and traitorist.

[–] anarchy79@lemmy.world 15 points 2 weeks ago

The US has high IQ presidents in spades?

Then maybe we should elect one of them.

[–] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 14 points 3 weeks ago

"High IQ"

"Treasonists"

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

Honestly surprised he spelled AI correctly.

[–] Strider@lemmy.world 13 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] banause@feddit.org 8 points 3 weeks ago

that do "things"

[–] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 12 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

"things"

Dementia has diminished his vocabulary significantly, if he's specifying with generalities

[–] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 8 points 3 weeks ago

He's always done this. He's a fucking idiot that writes like a 3rd grader.

[–] Kazumara@discuss.tchncs.de 11 points 3 weeks ago

The first time they are saying something believable:

we have tremendous criminal and regulatory power over these companies.

They do wield criminal power frequently, in the pursuit of their own gain

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 2 weeks ago

So even if this were true, isn't that like... Really bad? That our safety regarding AI lies solely on the IQ of one man? That changes every 4 to 8 years?

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 9 points 3 weeks ago

Assuming there is a future, people will look back on this time and expect that we were all this goddamned dumb.

[–] Rhaedas@fedia.io 9 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

If you end your messages with "Thank you for your attention to this matter" it makes you look like a real professional business man. If you're really skilled, add an exclamation mark!

But why, some say, our noses? Why choose this as our goal? And they may well ask, why climb the highest mountain? Why, 35 years ago, fly the Atlantic? Why does Rice play Texas? We choose to cut off our noses. We choose to cut off our noses... We choose to cut off our noses in this social media post and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they will hurt those who can't afford healthcare and we can send those noses to billionaires; because that goal will serve to organize and measure how pacified you have all become, because that challenge is one that will make us laugh, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one we intend to grossly profit off of using Polymarket, and the others, too.

[–] ChetManly@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago

His mommy called him an idiot when he was a child and he can't get over it.

[–] decolo@piefed.social 7 points 3 weeks ago (6 children)

No typos, stays generally on topic, I'm skeptical he's capable of writing this legibly. Does anyone do semantic analysis of his posts for attribution?

[–] northernlights@lemmy.today 7 points 3 weeks ago

"Treasonists, traitors" - no typo but makes up words and doesn't realize the next word was the one he was looking for. Sounds like a demented old man alright.

[–] rethnor@lemmy.zip 6 points 3 weeks ago

It was probably Natalie that wrote it.

Wish he would use AI to write his posts......

Haha I'm glad I checked the comments before I posted. This is the first case where AI would be an improvement!

I'd just settle for one that doesn't shit himself, doesn't lie, doesn't touch kids, doesn't start pointless wars, doesn't upset the entire world economy, isn't a cry baby, is smart. You know, basically anyone else.
