"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 actually don't have a blanket hate of AI; it genuinely has some useful applications .
Like you, though, I strongly resent software being installed on my machines without my permission. Not an anti-AI argument as such, granted.
My problem with LLMs specifically is that they have been set up to use the labour of other people, without permission and without paying for that labour, which is plainly unethical.
I'm in this boat. People place too much trust in LLMs, and aren't aware of how much it can hallucinate and be taught lies. People have literally died because of interacting with LLMs, where they probably wouldn't have died, had they not had that interaction.
