"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.

A Discord community for gay gamers is in disarray after one of its moderators and an executive at Anthropic forced the company’s AI chatbot on the Discord, despite protests from members.

Users voted to restrict Anthropic's Claude to its own channel, but Jason Clinton, Anthropic’s Deputy Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) and a moderator in the Discord, overrode them. According to members of this Discord community who spoke with 404 Media on the condition of anonymity, the Discord that was once vibrant is now a ghost town. They blame the chatbot and Clinton’s behavior following its launch.

Jesus fucking Christ that guy is delusional. Sky-high on his own fucking supply.

I suspect that most tech execs peddling "AI" have that problem: They believe their chatbot "AI" is gonna be the one to herald the new age of thinking machines, and they think they're doing the world a favour – sure, people might protest now, but that's how radical change usually goes. Just gotta ~~force~~ help them along a little, they'll see how great it is and be thankful later.

There's some degree of narcissism to it: to have a conviction so fierce that it blocks all disagreement from ever reaching your awareness.

At this point it's probably the only strategy for AI companies to survive. You're either "the best" or you cease to exist.

I hope they all OD.
