"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.

When will we simply accept that it's a bubble and move on, instead of pouring a relentless amount of resources into it.

I also feel like AI got used as an excuse to fire without spooking the market. As interest rates rose and remote work opportunities opened up the world labor market, saying that your company was using AI to fill developer jobs gave tech companies the smokescreen to fire senior devs in high CoL areas by saying "fUtUrE!" instead of admitting they were cutting development to the bone.

After the layoffs, since the tools are in place to develop from everywhere, why maintain Bay Area salaries?

Because all those assholes want everyone in the office.
