"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.

Even this is disappointing. LLM bullshit is only impressively fluent compared to older generative systems. (It is very impressive compared to them. It just should have stayed in academia longer and its components could develop into useful things. Instead everyone's falling over themselves about a kick-ass demo.)
yeah it's the middle-management thing again. "wow it can answer emails" "wow it can shit out demos" "wow it can follow an api spec". as internet hippo so aptly put it, they saw that it could do the job of a manager and concluded that it was sentient rather than coming to the correct conclusion that managers aren't.
