Fuck AI

"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.

And with it's training data, surely it will catch the rich, and not just everybody else...

But not Turmp or his billionaire friends who automatically should be audited on the assumption of wrongdoing. Just another tool of oppression to keep the masses from amassing any form of power.

[–] Master@sh.itjust.works 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Its actually just checking how politically vocal you are against trump and assigning audits to those people.

[–] minorkeys@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago

Yeah, that's what oppression looks like.

[–] Zephorah@discuss.online 26 points 2 months ago

But just us, not anyone with actual money.

Did anyone click the link?

That's the sketchiest thing I've seen in a while.

I mean, it makes a kind of sense but I don't trust that source at all.

I was wondering when the epoch times became credible but looking at the other videos they really haven't

[–] Droopy@programming.dev 2 points 2 months ago

it is just a little batshit....

[–] bigbangdangler@reddthat.com 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Agreed. Not sure why one should trust this source.

The IRS has some relatively detailed specifications about their use of AI on their website. I haven't looked carefully enough to make a judgment, but given the internet and clickbait, I wouldn't be surprised if the original link is embellishing some specifics.

Assuming you're willing to trust US government agencies more than clickbait media, which honestly, is a bit of a tossup.

[–] bigbangdangler@reddthat.com 3 points 2 months ago

Yeah, fair.

[–] DrPop@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I did some research and couldn't find any data or interviews to support this. I found a few interviews about how they are using AI but that's about it. It was mostly to audit what is sent in, not social media.

Wrap a tuth in a lie then watch it die... plus I heard about this jazz somewhere else and I no longer know where...I mean just connect the dots... Give it time... this is how people like alex jones become phrophets... they in on it. You got to get ahead of the problem. and 9/11 was a inside job but alex jones is a alternative nazi pandering to the lowest common denominator folks.... Like the "Experts" don't know shit or they holdin and we are left at the bottom as/with the mules of society trying to endure the cracks of the whip just ready to buck. It is gonna get cray cray. Like the right wing ecosystem which is all the media is a machine. The players play.. critical thinking cui bono is soooo important these daze.

epictimes is epic lies by epic swinezzzz.... a CIA right wing owned by a cult pyhcop that squeezes out a few half tuths for the mere objective to stress you out to feel hopeless. It is a " hey look at the squirrel" source but relative everything is... Its primary objective is antisocial and self interested... riding the waves of decay milking the suckers. But to catch a fish it needs to look like a worm even if it is not. Sieze the means of the memes derp

[–] Droopy@programming.dev 2 points 2 months ago

I click a link and I liked it 🎶

[–] StopTech@lemmy.today 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

There are sources in the video description

[–] Droopy@programming.dev 1 points 2 months ago

I think it is headed in that direction I also think that paper is a little bat shit. 2 things can be true at the sametime but a contradiction is a contradiction. I look at issues as a hierarchal frame and I parse via the Cui bono Function. I get the same answer everytime and the solution is always "eat the rich"

[–] underisk@lemmy.ml 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

They keep doing this despite more than enough evidence that auditing the wealthy would have far greater returns. Therefore, the IRS exists to punish the poor, not collect taxes.

[–] doingthestuff@lemy.lol 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

The wealthy hire accountants and lawyers and fight back. Poor people just roll over, suffer and die early.

[–] underisk@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 months ago

Even considering the increased difficulty in recovering taxes from the wealthy the returns are still so, so much larger that it makes it way more efficient if your goal is actually to recover as much evaded tax revenue as possible.

The IRS can audit deez nuts.

[–] Droopy@programming.dev 5 points 2 months ago

The epochtimes is a little looney tunes. I would find another source but yeah this is fucked up. You know it is for crushing the poor

[–] quick_snail@feddit.nl 1 points 2 months ago

Do they monitor mastodon?
