"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.
- No misinformation.
- No NSFW/NSFL content without being labeled NSFW or being in an appropriately-labeled spoiler tag.
- 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.
- No AI-generated content. If you want to post examples of AI failing hillariously, there are other communities for that like !ArtificialIgnorance@lemmy.ca .
- 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.
You can help the mod team by making your reports detailed.
Effective reports:
- "The third image is a well-known anti-semitic trope"
- "Claiming that 'agentic AI' can outperform humans at all jobs is misinformation"
Less effective reports:
- "Breaks rules"
- "Misinformation"

MODERATORS
Ours said the same thing back in December. Our principal engineer said we had to start using the chatbot for all coding.
I’ve tried it but at some point it gets faster for me to do it myself 50% of the time. And some of the other times it’s just flat out wrong. The times it gets it right are great; but I hate feeling like I’m relying on a slot machine for my job.
I just started using it just to commit and for PRs to make it look like I’m using it all the time. Burns tokens and execs can’t tell the difference.
Towards the end of the month I just start generating mindless crap so I don't get "dinged" for under-using AI.
The rest of the month I always set the model to the most expensive to try to naturally burn through my quota and get marginally less annoyed by the even worse suggestions from the default models.
Since burning through tokens really involves letting it invoke commands, I don't really burn that much naturally since I don't like reviewing and approving commands and I'm sure as hell not going to let it just run comands at will.
