"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.

Does anyone else spot the irony that we've been using AI (simulated annealing) to help us design circuit board layouts for decades, only it isn't an LLM so I guess it doesn't count?
I guess people don’t think of SA as artificial intelligence. Does it even rely on neural networks or other traditional machine learning tools?
It doesn't rely on Neural Networks, but it does rely on gradient descent/hill climbing, which is basically what a neural network does under the hood.
Annealing works, and therefore isn't AI.
