Fuck AI

"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.

Every time I see another article about Slopify I'm only more glad I spun up a Navidrome server last year. I love being able to support the artists I care about more directly by buying their music and actually owning it.

I did the math the other day, at the per stream payout rate Slopify gives their artists (~$.005), you would have to stream a song(s) 3,000 times to equal a single $15 album purchase. If you go with an average 3 minute song that's ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY HOURS. Fuckin scam.
