"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.

They are actually fineliner pens.
I haven’t used this specific brand so can’t say how good these are. But there are plenty of brands that make similar products they are available in assorted colors and tip sizes.
I have the purple Stabilo point 88 in fine (middle one in picture) on my desk. Had it for a few years, hasn't dried up or gotten empty yet. I like how the pen writes, but in general, I am not a big fan of felt tipped pens.
Definitely a solid writing tool though.
When you put too much pressure on them the tip just splits. Happened to me plenty of times when I was in elementary school. I'd rather have a regular ballpoint pen tip.
