"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.

Newish dad here. (When's that stop being "new" anyway?)
This made me tear up. I dunno it's been a shitty day as it is and of course I knew people like this were already a thing but...sheesh, man.
The "I hope they will be braver than you" thing...shit. Right?
I can't imagine being so hollow. This is already everywhere now, isn't it? People clanker-cranking posters, birthday cards, speeches, eulogies, love letters... We took for granted when somebody's words, however imperfect, were their own.
These zombies did exactly what all those shitty commercials told them to do: Pay 3 grand for a stupid phone and outsource human relation, sincerity, expressions of love, to a (in this case Google's) friggin planet-cooking Markov Chain.
I hope this entire era becomes a cautionary bedtime story. I hope our kids tell us in disbelief "No WAY people were THAT dumb! You're making it up."
This post was heartbreaking.
