"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.

Thing is once you post online, it is almost impossible to not be morphed by people using AI, so I think everyone should keep their profile private and only allow trusted people to look at their profile
Why post at all? Just show you friends your phone when you're together. If I don't see them in real life they aren't my friend, and they don't get to see it
I would go beyond that once you post anything online its not yours. Your words, your thoughts, your photos, your moments. You can't create culture in these spaces or outcoves its all algorithms meant for you to get locked in, replicate, and consume. None of it is meant to be yours.
Man its crazy how much these companies are allowed to scoop up and just throw into their models. You don't even have to be online and your friends and family are contributing to your online presence and building a profile on you.
Facebook can make ai advertisements with your kids likeness because you posted a picture of them to share with your family. They let algorithms absorb your frustrations and fears then let advertisers and endless content feeds manipulate those fears until you are a different person. So you can't even communicate your own emotions without then getting stolen and used against you. I don't want people to become anti social and not talk to their family, but if you do it through anyone's social media site then whatever you post there is not yours. I would argue that Facebook has torn apart more family's, and ruined more peoples lives than it has been beneficial to humanity in anyway.
The only benefit to anyone are the likes of Cambridge analytica or the many dictators that got instilled after Facebook used peoples fears to manipulate revolutions and genocides so the united States can have a "trade partner"
