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.

For me, it was when my friend told me he uses Twitter AI to tell him things to buy. My hope for humanity was already gone, but that definitely didn't help it. That, and the fact younger people don't search anymore, they go right to a chat bot.

100% agree. I regularly use spellcheck and access encyclopedias / dictionaries to doublecheck myself. I think grammarly was a great invention. But, once it went from analyzing voice/tone/mood to fully written block text many people just assumed they didn't have to learn to write anymore. My humble brag is that I don't use predictive text on any device. That makes me slower than others to respond. But in my mind it means I have to think about how to articulate just a bit more and, personally, I think I read more closely because of that too.

Wait...are normals actually using predictive text? Now I'm depressed. I remove that crap on every device
