"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.

I am adding this comment as related information has come to light.

In March of this year, Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi met with a representative of Palantir Technologies.

Courtesy call on Prime Minister TAKAICHI by Mr. Thiel, Co-Founder and Chairman, Palantir Technologies Inc. | Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan (March 5, 2026)

On Japanese social media, there are voices speculating that this relationship between Palantir and Japan may have led to the introduction of this bill.

Oooh. That's bad.
