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.

I rarely utilize the machine of sorrow, and only if I fail to find the information in normal search engines with effort and time invested. The prompt was:

What is the term for when an update breaks previously working features?  
What is the main origin of the term? Why was it used instead of other alternatives?  
Link to direct sources and find the most correct and valid reason.  

And I sure never ever used nor will use the freaking ineffably sorrowful, disgraceful, and disrespectful towards the Wikipedia and People work, effort, and the dear infinitely marvelous history:
- Grokipedia

Such a sad time to live...

I just stop trying if I spent enough time and couldn't get a result the regular way because using AI just encourages them to continue to spend effort on AI instead of fixing their search engines.

Fuck AI.

This eventuality has been known to be in the near future, that AI models would start to hoover their own nonsense at a certain point, making them even more inaccurate over time.

TIL about Grokipedia. Wrote a bit about it on the german Wiki-page, and that was a wild ride.
