"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.

And AI fell into a burning ring of fire! And it burns burns burns.....the ring of fiiiiire.
I'm mostly pissed that when the bubble pops, the rich will still be rich. People will suffer, but not the people who deserve to suffer.
And the next hype is around the corner and the people will love it!
Well, that's on you for not creating a company based on the inflated ego trips of pompous sociopaths. Do better.
All the investors in this need to suffer.
We need to talk to our representatives and make it explicitly clear that any form of bailout will result in their removal.
Investors tend to be rich, they'll manage. Who ends up suffering is people who recently bought a home and are knee deep in debt once the economy tanks and everything goes to shit. If they can't service their loans and they live in a country that doesn't give a fuck they'll be thrown on the street, and suddenly you have a homelessness crisis where the only thing people did wrong was to attempt to have a life. Meanwhile the people behind the AI bubble will just install taller fences around their private islands and face no worse consequences than that of being even more hated than they already are.
And so it begins.
We will all pay for this in the end.
Privatize the profits, socialize the losses
Only if we accept it. There is no reason we can't take it out on them at the ballot box, take back power, and then use that power to crush them. All we need are political leaders with the courage and strength to do what we are SCREAMING at them to do.
Jeffries is now saying that if they take back the House, he doesn't intend to impeach Trump, which means he probably doesn't plan to impeach anyone else either. If he won't commit to fight MAGA, that makes him ineligible for his job.
Jeffries' primary is on June 23, and he is being challenged by 27 year old Chi Osse, who just filed paperwork to run against him a couple of days ago. Osse is a Democratic Socialist, a Mamdani follower, and with Mamdani killing it in NYC, and Jeffries performing as badly as if he was being paid by MAGA, he might actually have a chance. I can't believe Jeffries constituents are that thrilled with the half-assed job he's been doing for YEARS.
Primary him out, and send a shocking message to ALL weak incumbent Democrats: Get in the game, or get the fuck out.
Hakeem Jeffries challenged to 2026 primary by 27-year-old New York councilman
Indeed, Jeffries seems to be doing more dancing than dodging out there.
It's a bold strategy, cotton, let's see if it pays off for him!

Huzzah! Love to see it, folks. The only thing that could be better is if AOC decides to primary Schumer.
Let's see not only republicans getting absolutely punished in November, but also establishment Dems getting punished by progressives in the primaries.
Anyone want to place bets on how tankies will somehow twist this into yet another reason why they won't vote?
We are already paying for it.
Corporate communism is a joke
Most people, when offered help, refuse it. Most people, when needing help, cannot ask for it. AI does not fit into this mindset at all. Does anyone study human behaviour anymore (other than purchase trends)? I'm tired of all these new widgets being forced upon us and I'm tired of trumps billionaire media owners telling us that they are good for you. Give me a slate and abacus over this dystopic bullshit any day.
"Tremble"... Man I hate these shit headlines.

And so it begins!
Don't worry daddy Trump with bail them out with public funds
OpenAI will contribute $100 million for his ballroom and get $150 billion in taxpayer money in return, I'd wager.
The amount of government investment would be surprising if anything else happens.
Really? But OpenAI changed the number of images ChatGPT can generate in a day from five to ONE in an attempt to get more people to subscribe/pay. You're telling me that didn't work? Colour me shocked! (People I work with use it and were bitching about it around the office this week.)
I think it'll push people the other way: off the platform, or to a competitor. Most people don't want to pay for AI. We're already paying higher costs for computer hardware, we shouldn't have to pay for AI, too.
Competitor will give their services as a loss lead and suffer the same fate as OpenAI where they will need to raise the prices or limit the number of prompts.
No AI company has put the true cost of AI prompts. AI companies hope that as many corporations as possible will fully integrate their processes with AI, locking them into their ecosystem and milk them dry.
And it pops, pops, pops, the AI bubble, the AI bubble.
Heh-heh
Is this the first domino? Or is this just economic edging?

Poof!
Hey let’s make our entire economy dependent on like a dozen companies that are incestuously intertwined with a fuckload of questionably legal round-tripping financial schemes wcgw
If only someone could have seen that coming!
They have hit critical mass and are reaching the inevitable endgame. I don’t think you can get more people to use AI, either you’re already using it or you avoid it.
There is only two things they can do, start charging the real cost or go into surveillance or war profiteering.
It would explain the push for ID laws, but even then, I don’t see them making a profit given that surveillance tech is already scary and effective.
In fact, the push for ID laws shows how ineffective AI is at surveillance, since apparently it can’t profile you using data, it needs hard confirmation
Deepseek v4 will fuck them up even more. The AI bubble is about to turn into a huge stinky fart.
That's where it started.
