"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.

There's an illusion of popularity while AI is artificially cheap, but as the costs of both subscriptions and hardware balloons the huge userbase these AI companies tout to their investors are going to become a lot less interested. The reasoning they give won't actually hold up in the face of price hikes, because for most people AI is a toy and a way to cheat on homework.
But popularity never really mattered. They could just say “this is how it is, deal with it” and not bother trying to convince people AI is the future.
