"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.

We've had White-out for almost a century now. They most certainly could've corrected those mistakes instead of starting over.

Whiteout was way out of the price range of my impoverished student ass.

Huh. It was a mandatory part of our back-to-school kit for most years here.
