"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.

Things like this are why I don't believe AI is going to kill us anytime soon.
Oh boy. AI has certainly sped up our demise (or at least a significant change in quality of life), but that's all related to a significant contribution to climate change due to energy consumption.
Every single variation of "top five reasons that AI will kill us" doomsday prophecies, is either due to them being morons, or paid shills to suggest AI is more intelligent than a parrot on a good day. In any case, a speculative distraction from the knowable negative consequences.
It may declare us dead, deny our life insurance payout because we aren't dead, post our job because we're dead, deny us welfare because we have a job, then send us to a coroner's appointment who will use an AI tool to decide we are dead and bury us alive in a giant pit with others because AI is the future and who are we to question it.
