"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.

I live in Japan and bamboo is a giant pain in my ass. It will spread out-of-control and isn't going to be a big deal to the datacenter folks anyway.
Isn't that beautiful?
That is very heavily maintained. Along one side of my property, they're only a few cm apart with a different variety of small, thin bamboo filling every crack it can find. It encroaches into the rest of my property and requires weekly maintenance in the warm months to keep back. If I did nothing, my whole property would just be an impassible jungle within a couple of years.
That is ai... Boom! Gotcha! Not a real photo! They do grow fast though.
I’m beginning to get curious as to the reason they kicked you out of the old place.
What? I was demonstrating how harmful ai is. You can't even tell that is a fake photo.
yeah. good job butthorn
Woah, I haven't heard the word butthorn since the late 90's, lol. Well done Alan.
He probably didn't even zoom in on it and immediately called BS assuming it was heavily maintained due to the spacing, I don't think you can call that a "gotcha"
What was I supposed to do? Say look at it closely? That was my whole point, people just assume photos are real. It is very concerning, in the near future, we won't be able tell if any photo or video is real at all. It will be indistinguishable.
