"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.

An LLM cannot ever "explain" anything to anyone, because it doesn't know anything. How are people still trusting anything these fucking things say?
Right?? It's bizarre to me that otherwise-smart-seeming people will think they can write "explain your reasoning" to the AI and it will explain its reasoning.
Yes, it will write some fluent response that reads as an explanation of its reasoning. But you may not even be talking to the same model that wrote the original text when you get the "explanation".
Because it's right more often than google? I swear you AI critics aren't actually using AI.
Agreed. Delusional mindsets stuck in 2023. I've never seen more entitled people before punching on FOSS devs and how they use their free time. "We need high quality, human coded FOSS programs with ZERO AI slop in them!" "Why no, I've never contributed to an open source project, nor do I know how to code, why do you ask?"
Forks exist, get over it.
