"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.

Good grief, has she not seen all the advances in medical technology in the last 50 years? Life saving technology? How can someone with such high qualifications be this stupid?

And on a side note, she also says ‘AI is for everyone’. if AI is for everyone, why doesn’t she champion for companies to stop putting AI technologies up behind paywalls and subscriptions? 🤔

If you ask who the most important person of the 1940s was (in terms of having the biggest effect on the world, not about being good or bad), it's quite reasonable to answer "Hitler". Time Magazine declared Hitler to be "Man of the year" in 1938 for basically that reason, i.e. measuring impact rather than virtue. There was a lot of reader pushback though. Maybe they didn't use the wisest of criteria for that award.

Right now, AI chips are making a ton of profit for AMD, so Lisa Su's viewpoint is understandably biased.
