"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.

But that's why my analogy works; imagine if all you ever got to eat was potato chips. You'd survive, at least you a little bit, but your quality of life would be abysmal. On occasion they might not be too bad but in excess, or exclusively, you'd die young. Yes, it does take effort to consume something better, especially in a society incentivized to continue feeding you empty calories, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't try getting a fresh vegetable in your system.
Ironically that also works for the metaphor given just how many Americans have terrible fast food diets, either by choice or necessity. Lol.
