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.

If AGI had arrived, I'm sure I'd be finding out from it, not from you.

[–] Nobody@anarchist.nexus 71 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Next week: AGI breaks containment and announces new cryptocoin to celebrate AGI.

[–] Catoblepas@lemmy.blahaj.zone 28 points 1 week ago

You know, I could believe that the first act of an AGI that was built entirely off whatever text was most convenient to get on the internet would be an attempt to scam people. That absolutely tracks.

Skippy? You little shit! Get back into your beercan!

These people should be in prison for the blatant market manipulation alone

And lose their head because they are billionaires

The point of the stock market is manipulation. There has never been a time the market has not been manipulated

Saw this dipshit at a conference last week. He's leaning into the jacket jokes and it couldn't be more cringey. My industry is fucked and is buying into the marketing hype whole-ass. There are some applications in the field but what people don't seem to get is that for every round of applause this fuckwit gets, hundreds or thousands of people stand to lose their jobs. We live extremely dumb times.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 4 points 1 week ago

seems its more useful for personal AI use, rather than a large scale thing. even for "Diagnosing" things its not even that useful.

[–] SoupBrick@pawb.social 48 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Come ooooooon. You know you want to dump another 300B into the AI machine! This time they made a real breakthrough! It is 200,000,000 times better than the last 5 breakthroughs we have blown trillions of dollars in investments for over the past few years! The projected earnings are insane! Just look at this chart we made with AI! It says you will get a Gorillian dollars!

[–] crank0271@lemmy.world 20 points 1 week ago (3 children)

When the bubble pops we're going to have to change currency to gorilla dollars

I wish this asshole would just fuck off.

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 5 points 1 week ago

I liked him better when he was just the sell GPU's guy.

He keeps the leather jacket industry afloat.

"and I’m done buying into the hype"

Well everyone has to grow up and grow a brain someday

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 27 points 1 week ago (1 children)

If you have to have a news announcement about the arrival of AGI, then it has not arrived.

[–] jj4211@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

No, they have decided what everyone was calling AGI is now "ASI", so they can now arbitrarily declare they did what they promised but still need tons of resources to get where everyone thought they were promising.

[–] crunchpaste@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 week ago

I'm a bit out of the loop, what's ASI? Sentient?

[–] kreskin@lemmy.world 26 points 1 week ago

He seems more like Musk every day.

[–] notannpc@lemmy.world 23 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Guy selling shovels says there’s gold just over there!

There’s a better chance of me getting struck by lightning twice than there is of AGI arriving in the next 5 years.

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

However over the next five years there will build enough data centres to cover half the planet, and still won't have invented AGI, but at least we'll be on chatGPT 19 but then.

[–] Zombie@feddit.uk 3 points 1 week ago

but at least we'll ~~be on chatGPT 19 but then~~ have the total surveillance state by then. Every road covered by cameras, all feeding into data centres that can track an individual's movements from the moment they leave their home. Taking note of gait, height, face, clothing, etc

They won't have the uppity proles protesting about genocides or the cost of living when any with the will to stand up get arrested instantly.

[–] Ioughttamow@fedia.io 21 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yeah, but the leather jacket! He’s got pizzazz! Panache!

[–] mrmaplebar@fedia.io 12 points 1 week ago

Moxie even!

[–] Melonpoly@lemmy.world 19 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Whoever made this is a genius

[–] slaacaa@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Thanks, that was also me

[–] bitteroldcoot@piefed.social 16 points 1 week ago

What a tool.

Him that is, his product is crap.

[–] JiveTurkey@lemmy.world 15 points 1 week ago

This man is a giant piece of shit. I'd be willing to lose everything and I own if it meant putting these assholes out on the street.

Nvidia CEO Stupid Jacket once again declares ‘AGI has arrived’ — but he’s been wrong before, and I’m done buying into the hype

[–] funksoulkitchen@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (3 children)

The Jacket isn't stupid.

It's a manifestation of Nvidia's mission statement in clothing form; a sign of it's individuality and its belief in corporate freedom. CEO cool jacket is just the next step in the lineage of trailblazers that use black leather jackets to look cool, like James Dean or Arthur 'The Fonz' Fonzarelli.

I get how it might stupid if you don't understand the history and context behind it, but the Jacket itself is okay

[–] Toga77@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago

Holy crap guys wake up, a new copypasta just dropped

[–] MushuChupacabra@piefed.world 5 points 1 week ago

You sound like you're on Stupid Jacket's PR team.

[–] Mac@mander.xyz 5 points 1 week ago

Did people really miss the satire?

[–] dmir@gehirneimer.de 9 points 1 week ago

Can't wait to be only hearing about this and nothing else at my work from all the psychosis victims.

AI is still a hype fuled dumpsterfire

[–] CptOblivius@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

He has gone full grifter.

You’re curing cancer, right?

“I’m done buying into the hype”

Bait or just dumb?

[–] eremophila@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 week ago

Both most likely

"Hype" is obviously something that should be ignored, just like "influencers"

[–] mrmaplebar@fedia.io 3 points 1 week ago

Congratulations on whatever you're talking about my dude.
