"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 is idiotic though
Yeah, quite.
Though, to be fair, the scammers and the LLMs themselves are pretty good at convincing their victims that the damn things are actually smart, to the point that some otherwise quite intelligent people have fallen for it.
And come to think of it, given that most investors have fallen hook line and sinker for the scam, if you're publicly traded catering to their idiotic whims and writing off the losses caused by the LLM might actually be more profitable, if most of your customers aren't smart enough to take advantage of your silliness...
