"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.

TF you ask if I’m a bot for? I didn’t try to sell you the New ™️ Gemini ©️AI Patriot’s Library ®️.

Yeah, I over-wote a response. Try this: The librarian now hands you the print books it wants you to see becaue it gets a better ad fee for that one, lets you view them online with more ads, doesn’t tell you about well-reviewed books taking a contrary view or even objectively disproving your question, etc. and you still need to subscribe, provide adult ID, and end up having a digital profile with the service.

Sounds like average doctor in the USA, isn't it? And it wouldn't be too far-fetched for a librarian to prefer some books over the others.

If I looked for "well-reviewed books" I probably wouldn't ask a librarian or generally a single fallible person, rather I would look for a repository of reviews for books.
