"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.
Rules:
- Relevant posts only.
- No bigotry.
- No misinformation.
- No NSFW/NSFL content without being labeled NSFW or being in an appropriately-labeled spoiler tag.
- This isn't a place to talk about the cons and (supposed) pros of AI for different use cases. This is /c/fuck_ai .
- Especially no AI advocacy.
- No AI-generated content. If you want to post examples of AI failing hillariously, there are other communities for that like !ArtificialIgnorance@lemmy.ca .
- Venting is part of the purpose of this community, but don't aim frustration or accusations at other users.
- These rules are a living document that may change in the future.
You can help the mod team by making your reports detailed.
Effective reports:
- "The third image is a well-known anti-semitic trope"
- "Claiming that 'agentic AI' can outperform humans at all jobs is misinformation"
Less effective reports:
- "Breaks rules"
- "Misinformation"

If you can't be bothered to write filler then it's an insult for you to expect others to read it. You're just wasting people's time.
I guess the point is for people to not read the filler.
I think of the text that's too small to read on a computer in the background. It's nice that it's slightly more real looking than a copy/paste screen.
Not even close to worth destroying the environment over, but it's a neat use case to me
Lorem ipsum has been used in typesetting since the 60s. If it’s not meant to be read, it doesn’t matter if it’s lorem ipsum text.
Not trying to dogpile you, I just think even things that seem ‘useful’ for LLMs almost always have preexisting solutions that are decades old.
Fair enough, I'm trying pretty hard to devil's advocate the "it has zero use" commentary. I hate the AI hype and LLMs getting shoved down our throats. I try a little to imagine a world where it's somewhat helpful, cuz that type of tech would've been cool if it wasn't a dystopian nightmare socially.
I mean long and short of it is Fuck AI and especially the people pushing it
