"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.

That touches on the heart of it; search engines have been so enshittified that AI is by default better, because it occasionally gets information from its training data that isn't easily found through normal searching.
(Some) AI has it's place, as in GAN AI is amazing at finding subtle indicators of patterns that can be extrapolated to new data, but got it's just so bad at 99% of applications it has ever been used for, including the entire concept of LLMs which are such an inherently flawed technology that they'll never be passable as useful for anyone that isn't a greedy shortsighted CEO wanting to replace workers as soon as possible.
