"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.

Seriously this is UCF right? Their enrollment has been well north of 50,000 for a while now. They have a pretty decent alumni list. What was Daniel Tosh busy? He couldn't do it?

Perhaps some higher up at the college wanted the speech to be pro AI, and that's the only speaker they found... (I have no idea if that's what happened, but it would be funny if that was why.)

Yep, someone had an agenda they wanted to promote, and thought it would be a good idea to pitch it to an audience that is geniunely terrified that the career they took out $150,000 in student loans to pay for no longer exists, and they will somehow have to make a monthly $1500 loan payment with a minimum wage fast food job - until they get replaced by a robot.
