"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.

Google Chrome silently installs a 4 GB AI model on your device without consent. At a billion-device scale the climate costs are insane. (www.thatprivacyguy.com)

I’m not sure if you just mean tech only companies, but this sentiment seems to be the new capitalist mindset.

It’s bleeding into the auto and home appliance sectors as well. You buy it, but they control it.

Pretty soon you’ll have to pay a subscription and do an update to get tooth paste from the tube.

That's why I hate the if you don't pay for it your the product. Because TVs, cars are all spying on us and we pay for them.
