"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.

the ai bubble pop will not return things to a pre-ai world, that’s wishful thinking. the dotcom bubble pop did not delete websites from existence.
ai will still exist, it’s just gonna be less hyped and we’ll see less of the silly, useless implementations. less humane pins, or "ai friends", but sadly still just as much regular people using chatgpt, coding LLMs and image generators.
It’d be nice if ChatGPT was a casualty like pets.com
Machine learning and image recognition or natural language input are useful tools, but for searching and regurgitating information or “art” it can fuck right off.
Due to less money flooding into AI after a potential pop (hopefully), it will mean there will be less images, videos, code, and whatever generated due to the potential lack, or at least a highly butchered free trial.
50% of the problems with AI could be solved with making AI a fully paid (per-use) product, so less hustlebros will AI generate a Python script, that will feed ChatGPT generated prompts into a text to image generator, which then regularly uploaded to Pixiv and Patreon, all as a side hustle. The rest is inherent to the nature of AI, as it's "grown, not programmed".
Give it 5 years and most of them will be monetised, they cant work for free
i agree with this alot
