"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 really don't understand how these rich fuckers think. I guess it is they have never really had any consequences for any action and so they do not see the long term harm.
Life or fascism? We all know what will be chosen.
Better start shining those boots!

And we chose the climate, bye bye.
Was my thought as well. Like, how thankful of the billionaires to give us yet another good reason to dump them.
The problem is capitalism gets them the chance to choose on behalf of people and guess what they will choose? Their justification doesn't even need a verb: "Because the Economy"
Sounds like a very easy decision to me.
Climate - next question
This is excellent framing. What's terrifying is that the side offering it is the one betting on "burn the climate".
Bullshit!
Just build more renewable energy sources and battery storage.
The grid doesn't support the rising needs?
Build the sources and storage yourself or fuck off!
But stop whining you stupid, lobbying assholes!
They'll choose AI to micromanage us because of the climate.
How is that even a question
Also, the tobacco lobby urges Europe to choose between cancer or cigarettes.
Uhhhh both ?
Not a fan of "POLITICO."
Climate is ~~more important~~ vital. AI is not.
Wait. I thought so is so good, it solves climate change? /s
That's me!!
I loved you in Battle Royale, but even more so in Hanabi!
