"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.

My main reason is that its output is bollocks.
But here's some variety. The bean counters at my factory have, on multiple occasions, taken away the things we need to make the products. They never even come on the floor to talk to us, they just decide something costs too much and stop buying it or restrict access.
Furthermore, we have to justify improvements to our working conditions on the basis of cost; can't be spending too much on the workers after all.
Yet the factory is spending $96,000 a year on CoPilot. That's money which could be spend on necessary equipment.
