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.

What the actual shit are you even doing? Genuinely, honestly and seriously.
In your own admission you hate the way it speaks, you hate how it's used, you hate that you have to jump through hoops to get any semblance of a correct answer out of it, and you hate how it's effected the internet as a whole.
SO WHY ARE YOU USING IT? Stop paying these companies with money or data, stop letting them claim your time, and stop supporting things you admit are actively making the world a worse place.
