"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.

It's backdoor outrage that will be used to ban local models so only the billionaire class get to own them and charge for their use.
Definitely on my list of suspicions, with this article coming out so soon after Claude had to drop their prices for Fable dramatically, and with models like Kimi's latest competing with it for much cheaper. Not to mention this coincides with the push to ban "Chinese models", it feels like this could be part of a broader wave to block the competitive open source models from US markets by any means available.
