"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.

Though the leaves of absence were medically necessary — which Markey explained in a letter in his applications — they were technically categorized as “voluntary.” That’s a minor detail which, if misinterpreted by a sloppy AI system, could have devastating consequences for his applications.

So before AI that happened all the time as part of the existing process when humans did the work. AI was trained on those practices, so of course it is going to involve all of the same prejudices and faults of the existing system plus any additional random bullshit from being AI.
