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.

Wildly disrespectful to any artist that ever lived. I'm all up for sharing alternatives that are good/better towards actual artists. Still evaluating my choices, but meanwhile this seems like the only and rather easy signal the streaming community can give as to spread the word if they agree (next to stopping your own subscription).

?? Chicken and egg? It's not that i cant afford the things I like. It's that i need to listen to it first to know if I like it enough to purchase it. If someone recommends me some band I never heard of froma genre im not familiar with, I would like to give it a chance. A heavy portion of the music I love now wasn't something I knew immediately I would like within 30 seconds of hearing it. The likelihood is their recommendation isn't for me, but I dont know until I listen a bit and simmer at least a short bit.

So do I just buy everything anyone namedrops outright? Or do I refuse to give a recommendation any chance whatsoever because I make a guess its not for me before I even listened?
