"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.

Why would you use a recipe to bake a cake when the professional baker down the street already bakes so well?
If the professional baker down the street threw human excrement into their cakes 1% of the time I’d make my own. Same reason I don’t use AI. Except it’s a lot higher than 1% with AI.
So they use premium quality flour and you’re using grocery store Pillsbury. Yes, their cake is going to taste better and yes, you’ll probably prefer their cake on occasion, but you also don’t want to drop $40+ on a cake when you can sometimes just get your fix for $5. What’s the harm in letting amateurs create something based upon a recipe when they wouldn’t be able to do so otherwise?
