"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.

Or to disassociate with someone for any reason whatsoever ?

I should have been more clear. To disassociate in this case means to excommunicate from the industry. He's behaving like a scab, so I think it's only fair.

when nobody stepped up, started using AI to feel the gap ?

Why does he need this speed, exactly?

i've been contributing to those "AI-free software" lists

Thank you. You realize that this is a vector by which we excommunicate bad actors, right?

The point of talking, "harassing" as you say, to Andrew Tridgell about this directly is that I don't want him to be excommunicated. I want him to see the light of humanity. I don't want rsync to be thrown in with the wolves.

what makes you think i wouldn't dare say the words ?

Because you weren't, and that's exactly the thing I'm critical of. If you were anti AI, you wouldn't be here... doing what you're doing.

Not disclosing this to the crowd I think is a bit dishonest. So for that, I offer you congratulations. I do appreciate it.

i hate US tech and hope their CEOs meet a fiery end

Doesn't this seem a bit hypocritical of you? You can see where a bit of antipathy is useful in one case but not in this other one with Tridgell?

I don't want him to meet a fiery end, I just want him to stop siding with vampires.

this technology was also created by Ialdabaoth, Cthulhu, Lord Voldemort and the ghost of Genghis Khan.

Absolute facts. So true.

is in league with demonic entities (in a weirdly homoerotic way for some reason)

xD
Listen, I have sucked dick, I would never suck vampire dick. It's gotta be soo dry.
