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.

Bruh you have no idea lol.
I am learning to write movies/tv as a hobby, and one of the projects I am working on right now is a satire of all this shit.
I have had to change the plot five fucking times because the most insane things i can come up with are just a Tuesday to these assholes. How TF do you top "child raping traitor bond villains?"
Show a scene where one gets drunk and kills a guy by colliding with his boat and then gets his wife to take the fall for him.
Or a scene where disaster strikes and one of the tech bros comes to "save the day" with the most naive idea, like something that sounds good until you think about it at all and realize it's missing some important fundamental parts of the picture. And then they try to absolutely ruin whoever shoots the idea down and actually saves the day, followed by getting more and more unhinged as they see the reactions to each reaction.
Could have one just die because he thought fruit was the cure for anything that could to wrong with him, which ironically might have even caused the issue that killed him in addition to doing nothing at all to help him. Have other characters obsessively talk about how much of a visionary he is. Could make the death scene happen while he's giving the most smug and patronising presentation about some new piece of tech that has a thing or two that sound nice but is presented as if they expect the user to be confused about the most basic shit, followed by a giant price tag. Then add on something that is normally included in the price, but this time it's sold separately for a price that suggests it's a revolutionary new version, but it's incredibly basic.
That is, don't try to top this shit. List it, maybe play it up a bit, then you can end it with the text "this was all based on real events and real people".
Remember to add how Sam with his partner bought child from surrogate mother. Maybe add how he selected her from Tinder or something.
Today's shark jumping is yesterday's brunch, essentially. I genuinely think they do it on purpose because they find it entertaining.
