"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.

MODERATORS
I mostly enjoy the problem solving and a challenge.
Before LLMs often code wasn't actually the hard part, it was more just a procedural break I got between the design or trying to figure out the best problem to solve, rather than just solving the obvious one.
So I always was looking to write the library that encoded conventions for the tradeoffs we want once and reuse it instead of writing bespoke code for every product, which seems to be the road more travelled.
So a multiplicative effect, so I can refocus on the hard parts sooner.
LLMs sure don't help the tendency to solve the obvious problem and writing bespoke code every time though.
