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.

So if it’s so effective, use AI to spread anti-racist content.
Turns out the guys that own the big tech and media companies just happen to be racists.
It doesn't work that way; peddling bigotry and hate is an asymmetric tactic. It's a lot easier to make slop that triggers people's base fears in their lizard brain than it is to appeal to their enlightened sense of reasoning.

That is not how anything works. Hatred and bigotry is easy to spread because they are simple low effort messages, anti-racism isn't. It requires thought and context, everything the target audience for racism lacks.
