"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, fuck AI art, there's no ethical use of wholesale theft these shitbags scraped and regurgitate without consent.
Ethics and useful are two different things. Im curious though, have you ever pirated a song? A TV show? A movie? A game? Bypassed ads on a website with an ad blocker? Bypassed a paywall? Shared account credentials on something like Netflix?
The cats out of the bag at this point though.
"I downloaded a file somebody shared with me" vs. "I downloaded every file on the Web in order to train my plagiarism machine, which I charge people to use".
Lol thats how you want to frame yourself pirating stuff? The cope is strong with you. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Also i dont pay anyone to use stable diffusion or any of the countless models on hugging face. (Edit and i don't charge anyone for whatever i toy around with either)
