"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.

MODERATORS
Here in the US, all we've done the last 40 years is pass fewer laws. (and you can check the count of bills passed, at least here in the US, if you don't believe me.) This last Congress actually passed significantly fewer bills than the 'Do Nothing Congress' of 1947-1949.
All this has achieved is forcing states to lead and creating a patchwork of around 2/3 similar but different regulations and 1/3 that are not meaningfully regulated at all, leading to all sorts of problems. The one that comes to mind immediately is Freedom Industries in WV knowingly polluting a whole state's water supply on purpose, because it was legal. Your Smart TV is also now spyware, likely for China, because we don't regulate domestic surveillance and tech adequately. (Though that is changing fast because it affects the Epstein Class.)
I have to conclude that you haven't thought this through if you honestly feel that way.
Clearly, evidently, and objectively it's a bad thing that laws aren't being passed. That's especially true with the rapid and severe technological changes.
