Fuck AI

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.

Yes, I'll just trust the AI to help me fuck around with grid voltage levels.

With google search results becoming so poor, I guess I need to look into kagi or duck-duck. Pain in my dick, motherless goatfucking, horsehit-happy asshole, corporate varmints gotta fuck it all up for more profit. I'm tired, yo.

I hate AI too, but reading and parsing manuals is one of the few things it's actually good at. The linked sources are right there if OP wants to confirm

It's not so great when the only available digital manual is a jpg scan from a printed version. There's also no way to tell what other sources an LLM is using when it generates its summary, and when you're dealing with things that are important to get right, like voltage, you have to just read the manual/specifications.
