"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.
- 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.
- Don't make any posts that are just AI content with no context unless the point of your post is obvious from content. (Don't just post slop advertisements or slop political cartoons. At least make your point about it clear so we know you aren't just trolling.)
- 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.

And who are you to claim to be the arbiter of what it is to "be art," Eh? Is the conductor an artist? They're not writing the music, or even playing a single instrument. Is the interpretive dancer an artist? They're not actually making anything, just wiggling their arms in funny ways.
What gives you the right to decide what is and isn't art? How precisely do you think yourself so much wiser and more accurate that the thousands that have come before you proudly claiming that X isn't and never will be art? Videogames, novels, digital paintings, rock and roll, you name it, and someone before you has said it isn't and never will be art.
This is nothing more than an argument for purity.
"I do not like this thing, I have decided it is dirty and tainted. Therefore, anything associated with it is automatically tainted. Here are some post-hoc reasonings as to why it is tainted."
Making a lot of assumptions on my behalf for someone that's supposedly so mad about other people presuming to know better. For what it's worth, it's pretty simple - art requires intent, which LLMs will always lack.
