Fuck AI

I like the AI that existed prior to the LLM and genAI slop fest. AI used to mean the tools that were used to discover planets, a lot of complex matching systems, and even tools for making music! Pattern matching using neural networks and other methids is awesome and has a huge number of positive uses.

So when I say I hate AI I am referring to those for profit companies who jam this slop into everything, increase pollution, give companies reasons to fire everyone, and drive up prices by buying up all the hardware even harder than scalpers ever did. The companies that have coopted the term AI are who I am referring to.

They are speed running culture into a shithole while bending us over and telling us to thank them for it. No, I do not want a fucking summary of a three word text message. No, I don't want a summary of what I am reading. No, I don't want someone else to read your inaccurate summary of the email I wrote. No, I don't want your made up bullshit spewed to people I know so that I have to constantly ask where they got some fabricated information and explain that your shit shoved into everything is not reliable. No, putting a fucking warning to double check results is not a solution, especially when you drown out the right information.

AI was better back before fascists decided to use it to try and take over the world.
