"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.

This would have been some Photoshop 101 shit.
Why has everyone forgotten how to manually manipulate photos?
The AI version is obviously not better.
The "6 finger thing" has also been mostly trained out of modern models and it's such an old meme it's the first thing anyone looks for in any sort of review.
Not only can they not photoshop, they can't even AI properly.
That or the 6 fingers were a deliberate choice. Trying to associate palworld with AI and therefore copyright infringement?
Which is even more stupid considering that Pocketpair publicly stated that they don't use AI
I don't think the "reporters" are paid enough to care
It was probably quicker to ask an AI to edit it than to make the edit personally and the writers for these sites are paid very little to churn out multiple low effort articles a day
Nailed it.
Their boss probably wants to replace them with an agent too.
Any amount above $0.00 is WAY TOO much money to pay these "writers" to spend half-an hour a week hitting CTRL+X and CRTL+V.
Because we're now talking about it, and they're getting more clicks/interactions because of it. AI does the work in a fraction of the time, with the added benefit of being rage-bait.
People don't click through on rage bait. It only serves to push an agenda.
If it didn't get clicks, and the associated ad revenue, it wouldn't be so widespread.
