"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.

Yeah, there was a period there where it was super interesting to explore and learn about. As a technology, it still is! But as a corporate product, it's the essence of everything that's wrong with capitalism - no real value in most cases, manufactured needs, embrace-extend-extinguish, and no down about to hit the hard downslope on the enshittification curve too.
