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.

Or, you could not use the plagiarism and theft machine to hallucinate missing content.

That is quickly becoming the least useful thing to say on the Internet.

Still infinitely more useful than "I asked ChatGPT" or any other lazy LLM.

Sure, man. Look, if you're just going to repeat slogans out of context I promise you I've heard them. You can save yourself the typing.

Deal with it or stop using the plagiarism and theft machine.

I am not, in fact, using tools of any kind to recreate the lost director's cut of Orson Wells' 1942 classic The Magnificent Ambersons, so I have nothing to stop.

I'm going to guess the answer you'd get from the Gen AI company that is actually doing it as a promotional/academic action would be "No".

This seems reasonable.

As for myself, I don't use any online LLMs or generative AI, but I do sometimes mess around with local open source models out of curiosity and for some applications where it makes sense.

My answer is also "No". Maybe just a little bit harder of a no now than before reading this.

You're doing a bang-up job. Truly winning hearts and minds out here.
