"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.

It's because they have no idea what "AI" actually is. They think you tell it to make profits, and it just does so. Anyone who has used any kind of "AI" for an hour knows that it's mostly just shit at everything except the absolutely most basic shit.
They have no respect for the work of their employees, so they thought that they could be easily replaced by a computer program. They were so excited by the prospect of handing over ALL of our jobs to AI, that they far overextended themselves.
Now they are going to crash and burn because they bet AGAINST every worker in America, and LOST.
I hope it hurts them really, really badly. We should respond to their financial pain by laughing at them, and taking away their fortunes and their companies, since they have demonstrated so clearly that they can't be trusted to handle the American economy responsibly.
A government bailout was ALWAYS the plan.
