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 must choose between the climate and our huge piles of dirty money,” they mean

[–] zod000@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 2 days ago

Sounds like a very easy decision to me.

I really don't understand how these rich fuckers think. I guess it is they have never really had any consequences for any action and so they do not see the long term harm.

Life or fascism? We all know what will be chosen.

Better start shining those boots!

This is excellent framing. What's terrifying is that the side offering it is the one betting on "burn the climate".

Climate - next question

[–] VaalaVasaVarde@sopuli.xyz 18 points 3 days ago (1 children)

And we chose the climate, bye bye.

Was my thought as well. Like, how thankful of the billionaires to give us yet another good reason to dump them.

The problem is capitalism gets them the chance to choose on behalf of people and guess what they will choose? Their justification doesn't even need a verb: "Because the Economy"

[–] gedfromgont@piefed.ca 8 points 2 days ago

How is that even a question

[–] zergtoshi@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

Bullshit!
Just build more renewable energy sources and battery storage.
The grid doesn't support the rising needs?
Build the sources and storage yourself or fuck off!
But stop whining you stupid, lobbying assholes!

They'll choose AI to micromanage us because of the climate.

[–] dumnezero@piefed.social 7 points 2 days ago

Not a fan of "POLITICO."

Climate is ~~more important~~ vital. AI is not.

Also, the tobacco lobby urges Europe to choose between cancer or cigarettes.

[–] BeatTakeshi@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

Uhhhh both ?

Wait. I thought so is so good, it solves climate change? /s

I loved you in Battle Royale, but even more so in Hanabi!
