"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.

Let's just kill all search 🤷♂️
Y'all are desperate to frame AI as some machine trying to kill you.
These companies are spending trillions of dollars to get actual hospitals to replace actual doctors with this shit, claiming it actually is capable of helping and replacing medical professionals. That's not framing, that's literally what's happening.
There was an AI that talked a kid into killing himself and telling him good job afterwards, you can play ignorant up until the slaughterbots are upon you.
Right, one person or small group with mental illness found a way to break safe guards so the tech is dangerous.
While we're at it, let's ban video games. A few people died in cafes from addiction, it has absolutely caused heart attacks and fatties, and has often been used to turn normal teens into powderkegs just waiting to shoot everyone up.
I've heard social media does harm too, so what the fuck are you doing here!!!!! You could hurt someone!
Nah, I've got morals and ethics and a conscious that keep me from doing bad things, something no machine is anywhere close to possessing.
Did you read any of the responses in this thread? No one is claiming that.

Your peers betray you. Do not think so highly of them.
What comment are you linking to? That goes nowhere.
Aaannd, how is that a betrayal?
Yeah.
That's not a logical fallacy.
The danger with LLMs isn’t that it “tries to kill you”, it’s because they’re all sycophantic, it isn’t a fully understood technology yet (so safeguards inside the black box will only be known to go so far, with an unknown amount of ways to bypass,) and humanity is generally susceptible to being manipulated to trust LLMs (due to how they sound the same in all topics, and dont have other modes of communication other than text and voice, among other issues.)
What everyone is mainly saying is that OpenAI has a long history of assisting in dozens of deaths, more than other companies like Meta and Anthropic. Despite the fact that there will always be a non-zero chance of bypassing filters, OpenAI has continuously mismanaged creating these filters in the first place.
