"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.

It's SO dumb. Why would anyone actually specifically seek out and listen to an AI podcast generated by some random documents? How would anyone locate it? Why would anyone create branding for it?
This is a feature without an audience.
i guess the apparent intention was so that it can be listened to, instead of read. the actual intention was to get money from the same type of person this appeals to
That's what the "read aloud" button is for.
hold up
not to make too much fun, but does it make coloring pages too? didn't it already have that feature? how does it differ from TTS?
