"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.

Is there any indication that increasing the use of“clanker” makes society more racist? One could argue by finally making the target of a racist-style slur a robot is actually uniting humanity together against a common enemy.
Will racist appropriate it like they do everything else? Probably, but if that use isn't semantically dominant, there isn't a real problem.
Second, there is a tendency to view hatred negatively. Whether you like it or not, there is a permanent population looking to hate something. If you don't give them something to hate, your enemies will--and it will likely be you.
