"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.

One if the reasons I really enjoyed the original Blade Runner is the "hero" is always getting his ass kicked. He's supposed to be the best, but the first Replicant we see him encounter in the field would have killed him. The only reason he lived is she got spooked by people coming in the room and ran off. Moments later Leon slaps the gun from his hand and beats the living fuck out of him in the street. Deckard would have died if it were not for Rachael.
He also misses a lot of shots when he isn't dropping his gun.
