"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.

MODERATORS
I don't think it's WWIII, they're transhumanists. Several of them are quite open about it. They believe they will be able to integrate into the machines and then a livable planet won't matter to them anymore.
Peter Thiel especially has been quite vocal about wanting this outcome and wanting to selectively enhance "the best" of humanity. All of these tech bros are sniffing the same glue and believe they are ushering in our ascension beyond physical needs.
