"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.

Was going to mention how my company did a stupid powerpoint slide and filled it with computer generated graphics, and it struck me that the only thing I remember from this presentation is how dumb the graphics were.
You had these melty corporate "people" working on laptops with screens on the wrong side, and that's all I remember; how fucking ugly and shitty it all looked, and how annoyed I was at the waste of time. I don't recall the subject matter at all.
It felt like, if they can't be bothered to put together a proper presentation, and instead just fill it with ugly computer generated bullshit, then why should I put effort into taking that in? My take-away from the entire thing is that I miss clip art. Which is funny because clip art makes everything shit.
