"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.

Maybe the best adfuck I've ever seen in my life was when someone cut out letters from a series of Snickers ads on these boards that were all eating puns ("Take a sabbatical in Feedgypt") to make a new one, in perfect stylistic keeping with the real ones, that read "Fuck the Post, read Chompsky" (Misspelling of Chomsky being the pun). It stayed up for weeks, on one of the G train platforms.
That’s pretty great honestly, the only one I ever saw that stuck out in my head was a generic health ad or something that had a man doing ballet, and someone had just slapped a nipple sticker of the appropriate size and color in the right spot so it looked like it was meant to be there. I walked by it and was like ‘wait did that ad have that guy nips out last time I was here?’
