"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.

As long as moneyed interests are involved with the idea of trying to turn a profit off of LLMs (that they successfully conflated with AI), ethics will never be considered in any capacity. As it stands right now, a real AI is a pipe dream because techbros have shoot their shot way too early; instead of funding multidisciplinary efforts to understand consciousness, the brain, and ways to simulate real reasoning/thought. They've created a Frankenstein's Monster with LLMs, that would never gain any form of intelligence as it cannot possibly replicate the complex consciousness and reasoning process that living things possess.
Realistically, I prefer humanity gives up on this at the moment because the technology to sustain data centers and cool them without severe environmental impact to OUR ONLY HOME PLANET is insufficient. Until we sort out our economic, social, political issues...An actual artificial intelligence should be a low as fuck priority.
