Fuck AI

"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.

You would think a federal department would at least check to make sure the flag patch isn't on backwards. The blue field should be leading in the direction of forward movement, dipshits.

[–] Bloomcole@lemmy.world 4 points 22 minutes ago (1 children)

americans are obsessed with their nazi rag.
Have to slap it on everything.
Imagine not having one on your plumber uniform or karate kimono.

[–] BradleyUffner@lemmy.world 2 points 21 minutes ago (1 children)

Apparently not obsessed enough to make sure it isn't backwards.

[–] Bloomcole@lemmy.world 1 points 14 minutes ago

They can be obsessed and stupid at the same time.
Certainly not uncommon

Ironically exactly what trump is doing to the government and the right wing to education.

Always disappointed, never surprised.

They are actually stealing.g all the copper to pay for meth

[–] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 25 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

What the fuck did they do to that sink?

[–] unemployedclaquer@sopuli.xyz 8 points 4 hours ago

Applied a fuck-ton of torque to them puny sink fasteners!

[–] billnyethescienceguy@piefed.world 4 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

what are they soldering??? whys there solder wire???

[–] bunnyBoy@pawb.social 1 points 36 minutes ago

Solder isn't just used for electronics, it's also used in plumbing. Search 'sweating a joint' if you're interested

[–] __Lost__@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 hour ago

? They are soldering the ton of copper pipe behind them

Their disgusting over use of AI shows that they don't respect human workers anyway; even many of the current republican voters will understand this, and jump ship.

Their overuse of AI imagery shows that they believe in post truth leadership. Trump posted a fucking picture of himself walking with a star wars aliens and passed it off as real.

Then the official disclosure (also lies) described that species as being like 4 feet tall, rather than taller than Trump, showing he has no attention to detail and doesn't even read his own memos.

Can someone actually fucking deal with this deranged despot? The most expensive thing we can do to the Zionist regime in Israel is force them to buy another president. Get Trump out of the oval office.

INSUFFICIENT PATRIOTISM DETECTED. GENERATE ADDITIONAL AMERICAN FLAGS.

...Nnnot that I want to defend the Soviet Union, but their propaganda poster artists did stuff just like this, except they didn't put absolutely cursed piping things in the illustrations, and this despite the fact the artists were probably hella drunk or something.

The pipes and tools are crazy, but I also think we've got some sort of half-hover van in the back? I swear there's a wheel missing, and I don't think the frame is square / straight / structurally sound.

[–] unemployedclaquer@sopuli.xyz 2 points 4 hours ago
[–] Endymion_Mallorn@kbin.melroy.org 37 points 9 hours ago

If we ever get sanity back in this country, can we ban the government from making faux-Soviet propaganda posters with AI?

"You see the problem here is that there's just far too many pipes. You brought your good tools, right?"

I feel like a real plumber would look at this, and just say "Now what the hell have you got going on HERE??? NO NO NO NO NO!!!! This is all wrong! Copper pipes aren't meant to be an asthetic! Why are there so many stupidly designed pipes??? And what the hell are you doing to that wrench???? Nooooo, none of this adds up! This isn't real! This has to be a simulation! I'm living in a simulation! A poorly made simulation!"

Then he takes out a gun to kill himself, but it morphs into several tangled copper pipes vaguely resembling a gun and shoots out water.

"THATS NOT HOW PIPES WORK!!! IT'S NOT EVEN CONNECTED TO ANYTHING!!! WHERE'S THE WATER SOURCE???"

Was going to mention how my company did a stupid powerpoint slide and filled it with computer generated graphics, and it struck me that the only thing I remember from this presentation is how dumb the graphics were.

You had these melty corporate "people" working on laptops with screens on the wrong side, and that's all I remember; how fucking ugly and shitty it all looked, and how annoyed I was at the waste of time. I don't recall the subject matter at all.

It felt like, if they can't be bothered to put together a proper presentation, and instead just fill it with ugly computer generated bullshit, then why should I put effort into taking that in? My take-away from the entire thing is that I miss clip art. Which is funny because clip art makes everything shit.

To be fair, a real plumber says that every time they enter a bathroom to start a job.

[–] GreenCrunch@piefed.blahaj.zone 54 points 11 hours ago (8 children)

love the pipe connecting the two corners of the sink, that's very useful

Does anyone have the phone number for this company? I was hoping to find someone to install a sink in my driveway.

[–] lividweasel@lemmy.world 20 points 9 hours ago

Sorry, best they can do is drive their van into your bathroom.

[–] hansolo@lemmy.today 7 points 8 hours ago

A sink that draws water from your pocket?

Not sure this would register as a seduction attempt. I'd just assume that guy always walks around like that.

Oh god.....I know I commented earlier on this thread, but I didn't notice the toolbelt! The wrench is only half a wrench!!!

[–] Sanctus@anarchist.nexus 36 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

What they can't even use the good image generators? They gotta use this GPT3 bullshit with the pipes all nonsensical?

[–] NekoKoneko@lemmy.world 16 points 9 hours ago

The biggest time saver of AI is its implicit permission to not care about the result.

Can’t even get the flag right.

when the flag patch is worn on the right sleeve, it appears reversed so that the blue union (the stars) faces forward.

What the fuck kinda tool is she supposedly using?

I think it's a MIG wrench.
