"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.

Not the best example
There was nothing useful on Pinterest before AI imagery either
OOP apparently found use in the site, so that is what I went off of.
I’m trying to imagine how that is possible, Pinterest always showed up in google search results with something that looked promising but didn’t actually exist on their site. I can only imagine that it’s even worse now post-AI.
Me: Object Oriented Programming?!
"Organic Original Poster" (to differentiate from AIs)
When it very first started, it was a great visual bookmark service. I sew/crochet/craft, and it was nice being able to save a pic of the finished shirt and have it automatically linked to the pattern's website. Like most things, it went to shit after they tried to monetize it.
I have a couple of friends who use it like that. I hate when they send me links, it's like those people who used to spray you with perfume in department stores.
I got screensavers and recipes I'd never make from them, how dare you
