"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.
- No misinformation.
- No NSFW/NSFL content without being labeled NSFW or being in an appropriately-labeled spoiler tag.
- 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.
- No AI-generated content. If you want to post examples of AI failing hillariously, there are other communities for that like !ArtificialIgnorance@lemmy.ca .
- 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.
You can help the mod team by making your reports detailed.
Effective reports:
- "The third image is a well-known anti-semitic trope"
- "Claiming that 'agentic AI' can outperform humans at all jobs is misinformation"
Less effective reports:
- "Breaks rules"
- "Misinformation"

I’m not saying that rich people have never had an advantage. I’m saying that the only thing that gives lower income people a little bit of extra advantage is completely lost.
It doesn’t matter if you’re the best programmer in the world. You’re no match to what the rich brat can output.
And currently it doesn't matter if you're the best programmer in the world if you can't find people willing to either work with you or employ you because say you're poor and have a crappy personality. Or because you're highly autistic and undiagnosed and people always tried to avoid you and all you ever learned was doing things on your own.
Or you could even possibly be the best programmer in the world if you actually could touch a computer in the first place, sucks that you have to spend your childhood on some cocoa fields.
All your (dormant) skills are nothing without opportunities to actually use them to their fullest and you can only go so far on your own. If you were born into the wrong family (as in wrong economic status) it's very possible you don't even have the chance to develop your amazing abilities in the first place, ai or not.
