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 shocking that there hasn't been more vandalism, or "terrorists" attacks.
Especially since there are so many data centers in rural Texas, where everybody and their dog owns a 300 blackout for hog hunting.
Getting kinda conspiracy theory-ish, but I wonder if there has been a lot of vandalism, but it just hasn't been reported on and kept hush-hush
Those suckers are built like a fortress, although Bubba probably knows a guy with a wrecking ball.
not all of them. zuck's using tents in ohio to build them faster. giant tents larger than some walmart supercenters.
Thermite isn't exactly hard to make, and it does a marvelous job at melting anything capable of melting.
You have no concept of scale.
You don't need to melt the whole building to put it partially out of action
if your focused weak spot requires thermite to break, there are probably better weak spots.
Or better materials to use. But I was just replying in the context of the conversation
So grab a plane, thermite and then go for a short flight. If suddenly the air gets bumby, accidently having us drop the thermite bomb above the DCs. Would that then be involuntairy vandalism?
Or just use a drone, way cheaper
I mean how much damage could one person coveivably do to such large structures?
an average person or someone with a latent talent for destruction?
Not sure about the "a lot" part but there's definitely been silenced or downplayed by the media.
They’re probably of the same stock that used to take potshots at power stations. Might as well get with the times.
right. used to.
