"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.

Really? But OpenAI changed the number of images ChatGPT can generate in a day from five to ONE in an attempt to get more people to subscribe/pay. You're telling me that didn't work? Colour me shocked! (People I work with use it and were bitching about it around the office this week.)
I think it'll push people the other way: off the platform, or to a competitor. Most people don't want to pay for AI. We're already paying higher costs for computer hardware, we shouldn't have to pay for AI, too.
Competitor will give their services as a loss lead and suffer the same fate as OpenAI where they will need to raise the prices or limit the number of prompts.
No AI company has put the true cost of AI prompts. AI companies hope that as many corporations as possible will fully integrate their processes with AI, locking them into their ecosystem and milk them dry.
