"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.
Rules:
- Relevant posts only.
- No bigotry.
- No misinformation.
- No NSFW/NSFL content without being labeled NSFW or being in an appropriately-labeled spoiler tag.
- This isn't a place to talk about the cons and (supposed) pros of AI for different use cases. This is /c/fuck_ai .
- Especially no AI advocacy.
- No AI-generated content. If you want to post examples of AI failing hillariously, there are other communities for that like !ArtificialIgnorance@lemmy.ca .
- Venting is part of the purpose of this community, but don't aim frustration or accusations at other users.
- These rules are a living document that may change in the future.

- "Claiming that 'agentic AI' can outperform humans at all jobs is misinformation"
Less effective reports:
- "Breaks rules"
- "Misinformation"

My problem with that is that if I do this correctly, it could mean hundreds of thousands of jobs from people that have potentially spent decades making a trade. It's harder than just me wanting money.
Then don't do it correctly. You're basically doing your peers a favor if you poison the data.
I might get grilled for this point of view...
The car dramatically reduced the demand for horse shoe makers. Perhaps you're lucky to be on the car side of the equation? Horses are still great, but most people prefer cars.
It's a good analogy because cars enabled globalism, more exploitation and poisoned billions of people with nitrous oxides, lead and particulates. Cars lead to cancer. We should be on the train side of the equation...
There is no side to be on, people will do the more convinient thing and cars were not obviously that dangerous and there are OBVIOUSLY positives to car use over horses.
Is your argument we should have forsaken any modernity since the first humans?
No, my argument is that humanity should stop doing dumb things when they find out they're dumb.
