"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.

This person is the devil on your shoulder. I quit doing things like applying to corporate slums and my life improved drastically. Like an unreal amount within months my mental health has skyrocketed. Trust me, it's better to just quit your job and support the people you like. A LOT of people will be mad but it will get easier to let it fall right off your back.
If a person says they have been having a very hard time for almost a decade because of job difficulties, you should perhaps consider the situation in that context and point of view rather than the black and white holier than thou approaches. I agree that the ideal point to go to is to isolate your-self from aggressive capitalism as much as possible but for each person the sensible steps to get closer to this is different.
I've been unemployed since 2022, respectively fuck off with an argument that bad faith.
Oh you seem very balanced and zen. Miss capitalism yet? 🙃
Cursing = bad people are so weird. Do you think I'm unhappy when I say fuck? I love saying fuck it's awesome lol
Also no I literally don't! I stopped looking for work in August and my life has been on an upward tick. I'm self harming less, my marriage is improving and I've been getting in a LOT of my bucket list. I've also been feeling really strong and like I'm putting my whole self out there.
So yeah!
Glad your life isn't as miserable as your fediverse comments 😄
I am sorry, I hope you find an occupation that is to your liking and holds up to your standards. Give everyone who chooses to step away from aggressive capitalism the chance to contribute in their own way and do not try push the "I did it like this so should you". Someone else will always come and find things they do better than you which you won't be able to really fix in your context and getting shat on for that doesn't help anyone but provide temporary relief on the side of the shitter. For people who are brave enough to give up a majority of their life and go through major difficulties to distance themselves from all this, I feel respect. But that won't work wonders on everyone. So better they stay sane and contribute less but in their own way.
