Fuck AI

"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.

Didn't care when the arts and humanities were being scraped dry, but suddenly they're all coming out against it now that they're going after the sciences

Simply not true.

Exhibit A: I Will Fucking Piledrive You If You Mention AI Again

Holy shit this article is fucking gold. Everyone should read it.

[–] Almacca@aussie.zone 35 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I balked at the length of it, but then I started reading, and holy shit, you're right. Such prose! The finale slew me.

With God as my witness, you grotesque simpleton, if you don't personally write machine learning systems and you open your mouth about AI one more time, I am going to mail you a brick and a piece of paper with a prompt injection telling you to bludgeon yourself in the face with it, then just sit back and wait for you to load it into ChatGPT because you probably can't read unassisted anymore.

Same guy who wrote the "I saved half a million dollar with a few button presses and it made my life hell" articles years back. Also a great one.

His blog is gold. He struck out on his own with 5 friends a few years back and is doing great apparently.

[–] Almacca@aussie.zone 2 points 4 days ago

Yeah, I'm definitely checking out more of his work.

[–] StillAlive@piefed.world 15 points 5 days ago (1 children)

He appeared on a podcast last month:

great watch, thanks!

[–] dumnezero@piefed.social 8 points 4 days ago

It's a classic.

[–] MigratingApe@lemmy.dbzer0.com 17 points 5 days ago

I also have a podcast. The latest guest is Ed Zitron. Come listen to us spew vitriol for an hour and a half.

I guess anyone who likes the article is going to love the podcast, then.

[–] Cass@piefed.blahaj.zone 2 points 4 days ago

Very much not the average stem BRO, at least the people around me are exactly as OP says

[–] Axolotl_cpp@feddit.it 1 points 3 days ago

Oh god i love this, it's absolute peak

[–] the_wonderfool@piefed.social 3 points 4 days ago

Thank you for sharing this wall of pure poetry.

[–] MrOtingocni@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago

That was awesome

[–] Eggymatrix@sh.itjust.works -5 points 5 days ago (3 children)

I understand and do agree with the technical points made in the article. I do find the use of gratoutious violence kinda offputting, ngl

[–] WhatAmLemmy@lemmy.world 9 points 4 days ago

It's called satire

Let's get you back to bed, Grandma.
