"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.

Sounds like you might also want to try and shield yourself from the fallout of the inevitable. Especially if you work in a corporate environment. Keep records of your opposition to it and where you pointed out the risks.
When the ai eventually corrupts or wipes entire projects, you can bet your ass others will try to throw you under the bus somehow.
Being able to demonstrate that you were the only one who saw it coming and tried to stop it should get their attention.
Oh, I definitely am! Although plan A is to find a new job before this one implodes, but the chances aren't great because the market for software engineers is in a bit of a slump rn and I'm pretty picky about not working for unethical/enviromentally destructive causes ๐ฎโ๐จ
