"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.

Mental gymnastics? I can't fathom how people keep finding new reasons and justifications for using such fundamentally evil technology. Its not that there's no nuance to be had in the conversation, but any positive uses are purely theoretical at this point, because they can't be realized with the technology in its current state.
"Guys guys guys, I know the tech was built with fundamentally horrible intentions and is trained on nothing but stolen work and is killing the planet and yada yada yada but if we're just aware of its limitations and use it for good... somehow... it's totally not useless."
