Fuck AI

"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.

That's Indian Rupees - ₹17800 is currently $18.73.

Still overpriced, and not that overpriced.

I can get a similar cloth for ₹100 or barely more than $1.

Hell probably even 20 from China for the same price. I do condone buying silly stuff from Aliexpress, Temu, etc., tho.
