"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.

I believe the actual number is around 25-30%. Blame the Norman invasion.

But French is like 80% Latin roots so you can blame the Romans before that.

Also yeah the crazy number of synonyms is a peculiarity of English because it also has strong influence from Old Germanic, Latin (more directly), Greek, even a bit of Sanskrit.

Also arabic and other semitic languages

Latin is at least pronounced just like its written.

The french took those words, threw away everything but the root, added 50% more vowels than necessary and drew a few symbols over certain letters to change the pronunciation.
