"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.
Rules:
- Relevant posts only.
- No bigotry.
- This isn't a place to talk about the cons and (supposed) pros of AI for different use cases. This is /c/fuck_ai .
- Especially no AI advocacy.
- Don't make any posts that are just AI content with no context unless the point of your post is obvious from content. (Don't just post slop advertisements or slop political cartoons. At least make your point about it clear so we know you aren't just trolling.)
- Venting is part of the purpose of this community, but don't aim frustration or accusations at other users.
- These rules are a living document that may change in the future.

The people who made calculators didn't steal anything from mathematicians in order to make them work.
Didn't they? Did they get consent from the mathematicians to use their work?
Math is discovery, not creation.
What a completely arbitrary distinction
I think the fact that AI sucks ass at even the most basic math proves that the difference between discovery and creation is, indeed, not arbitrary.
Unless you are the kind of person to use AI to do math, then yeah I can see how it can look that way.
I don't follow your reasoning at all.
Hahah love it
"If you facilitate AI art, you are a shitty person"
There are ethical means to build models using consentually gathered data. He says those artists are shitty.
Now you're moving the goalpost. You said told always replace humans and made the analogy to calculators and refrigerators. The fact is that the cast majority of generative AI in use today didn't get their content ethically.
Lmao im moving the goalpost? That was literally my argument from the get go. Dude says your shitty for using/facilitating ai art. Dudes dead wrong. End of story
